Slapfish-A Modern Seafood Shack
Finding it
Slapfish-A Modern Seafood Shack is in Departures in Terminal 2 at Los Angeles International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
Terminal 2 has 9 places to eat and 6 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 3:30am.
Hours against the security queue
Slapfish-A Modern Seafood Shack opens at 6am and closes at 11pm. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical LAX checkpoint queue at 12 minutes around 6am.
Across the week, LAX security runs longest around 12pm at a median of 20 minutes, and lightest around 1am at 2 minutes. This location is already open before those queues build.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's LAX wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
Running 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., it spans nearly the full span of Terminal 2's departures without covering the earliest or latest flights. Fish and chips, clam chowder, lobster rolls and fish tacos built from sustainable seafood suppliers put it in different territory than the burger and pizza counters at BUILT Custom Burgers and Fresh Brothers Pizza that share the same departures strip. There's no second Slapfish at LAX, so this fast-casual seafood shack is the one place in the terminal, and the airport, to get that specific sustainable-sourced menu rather than a general American or Italian counter.

All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
