San Pedro Fish Market Celebrates 70 Years on the Waterfront

05.26.26

San Pedro Fish Market is celebrating 70 years of seafood, family traditions and waterfront dining in Southern California.

Founded on Good Friday in 1956, the family-owned institution began as a small seafood stand called Vista Seafood, opened by Mackey Ungaro alongside his son Henry and nephew Tommy Amalfitano. What started as a neighborhood seafood spot quickly became a favorite gathering place for locals drawn to the fresh catch and welcoming hospitality.

Over the decades, San Pedro Fish Market grew alongside the harbor, eventually becoming one of the most recognized seafood destinations in Southern California. Today, the restaurant is led by its fourth generation of family ownership and remains known for bringing people together over large seafood platters, waterfront views and longtime traditions.

Its World Famous Shrimp Tray has earned national attention and helped place San Pedro Fish Market among the most Instagrammed restaurants in the country, attracting visitors from around the world to the San Pedro waterfront.

As the restaurant marks its 70th anniversary in 2026, San Pedro Fish Market is continuing to invest in its future while honoring its history. The company recently secured a 49-year lease at the upcoming West Harbor development in the Port of Los Angeles, ensuring its longtime presence on the waterfront for decades to come.

Throughout the year, San Pedro Fish Market will celebrate the milestone with special events and community programming. Guests are also invited to share favorite memories on social media by tagging @SanPedroFish and using #70thAnniversary for a chance to receive a limited-edition anniversary coin. Winners will receive line-skipping privileges at The Landing location in San Pedro for one year.

One of Southern California’s newest entertainment experiences is coming to Buena Park as The Speakeasy Murder & Other Acts of Prohibition makes its West Coast debut on Thursday, June 4, 2026.

The immersive murder mystery dinner experience transforms the evening into a 1920s New York-style speakeasy filled with gangsters, bootleggers, flappers, live music and interactive storytelling. Guests are invited to become part of the mystery as the storyline unfolds around them with audience participation helping shape the outcome of the night.

The experience includes a served three-course prix fixe dinner with chicken, pasta, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options available, along with kid-friendly meals for junior detectives.

Created by EG Murder Media, the production comes from Emmy Award-winning comic writer and TV host Erik Hastings and Broadway and West End producer Gary Littman. The concept first launched in Orlando in 2025 before expanding to Buena Park.
