Categories: Restaurants
Neighborhood: Santa Monica/Beach Cities
Cuisine:French, Seafood
1104 Wilshire Blvd Santa Monica CA 90401+1 310 395 0881"The food here is fantastic. You get a great range of breads for a start, including bacon bread, olive bread and French roll. You will certainly get what you pay for in terms of the food quality. However, the fine dining service complements things impeccably. Lobster Bolognese, Sonoma rack of lamb, house cured salmon and capers, yuzu, pickled daikon, and pistachio and goat cheese coated grapes are ... read more > -

Cuisine:American (New), Seafood
20356 Pacific Coast Highway Malibu CA 90265+1 310 456 3010"The view of the ocean from Moonshadows of beautiful Malibu is second to none. The fact that you can eat a lobster omelet while enjoying the view is all the better. With a terrace that feels a little something like a promenade, you may find that the place gets very busy on beautiful days. However, if you reserve a table ahead of time, it shouldn’t be an issue. Food and service are both very good." -

Neighborhood: Santa Monica/Beach Cities
1819 Ocean Avenue Viceroy Santa Monica Santa Monica CA 90401+1 310 260 7500Muted hallway lighting conducive to sleep here. Just pad along to your bedroom and you’ll soon find yourself in the arms of Morpheus. Before that, check out the bar – or drop in if you’re a non resident. They have a hopping Saturday night, with plenty of the beautiful people and a pool side area to enjoy drinks and talk. -

217 Broadway Santa Monica CA 90401(310) 576-3030Cocktails, cocktails, cocktails. That’s the key here. If you’re looking for a good martini in LA, this is the place you’ll find it. The quality of the cocktails is second to none. The many ingredients of the cocktails on offer are as big a surprise as the deliciousness of the concoctions. If you're not sure what you want, you can ask the bartenders to make something for you as they are masters of ... read more > -

814 Broadway Malibu CA310-394-3504"The lighting makes for an intimate atmosphere here. It’s a great place to go with someone special. Everything from sake to sandwiches on offer. Some pretty deep pan pizza, delicious brownies, snacks and full meals. The wine list isn’t extensive, with more than a dozen reds and whites to choose from. Don’t expect a fully stocked wine cellar, but the wines available are pretty fine. There are also ... read more > -

Cuisine:Steakhouse
101 Santa Monica Blvd. Malibu CA 90401310-899-4466BOA Steakhouse in Santa Monica is home to some of the best steaks in LA with a menu that is perhaps the most extensive you'll see at at steakhouse. For appetizers they have a fantastic Goat Cheese Baklava and a delicious BLT salad. Cocktails include a uniquely flavored "BOA 405" which is made of 42 Below Vodka, fresh lemon sour, balsamic vinegar, cracked pepper and strawberries for a strong, sweet ... read more > -

Neighborhood: Santa Monica/Beach Cities
Cuisine:Burgers
1018 Montana Ave. Malibu CA 90403310-393-2337"As much bar as restaurant, this venue serves great burgers and food. The place serves what could be classed as a house special burger with spinach, cheese, onions and a delicious sauce, sandwiched in a roll like piece of bread rather than a bun. Sides on offer include both sweet and regular fries. The menu is limited. However, if you’re not here for the burgers, the beet salad is fantastic. There ... read more > -

Cuisine:Mediterranean, Tapas
1119 Wilshire Boulevard Rustic Canyon Santa Monica CA 90401+1 310 393 7050"A burger that is as tasty as it is alarmingly huge makes for a great meal here. An oniony topping is delicious too (probably a major selling point). The burger itself has its own center of gravity around which you will find a belt of moons. Use cutlery on this particular beast. There are plenty of other dishes. If you’re looking for something a lot lighter in your main course, the quail isn’t as ... read more > -

Cuisine:Italian
1810 Ocean Avenue Santa Monica CA 90401+1 310 394 5550The best things in life are going to cost you a pretty penny despite what people may believe and at Capo you're buying probably the best Italian dining experience not only in LA but perhaps in the entire country. This lofty praise is confirmed by nearly all diners of Capo that include Hollywood's A-list so don't be surprised when you're sitting next to a handful of the biggest stars. Capo is defin ... read more > -

Neighborhood: Santa Monica/Beach Cities
1201 Abbot Kinney Blvd Venice CA 90291(310) 396-6230Great music and great beers and wines ultimately makes for a good time here. However, the Otheroom takes dim and intimate lighting to another level. In fact, it goes the opposite in creating a darkness that shrouds the entire bar. The place is very busy, so try and get a seat at one of the bench sofas or be prepared to stand. Twenty beers are available on tap, and three times that in bottled form. ... read more > -

1301 Ocean Avenue ste 700 Santa Monica CA 90401(310) 394-2791The art deco style is like something out of Mad Men. Very classy, chic and stylish. If you’re staying overnight, rooms and suites are spacious, with some fancy mirroring to suggest even more space. (Breakfast is served till after ten am for those who like to party so hard that they need to crash.) A seasonal and farmer friendly restaurant ensures plenty of fresh chow if you’re here for more than t ... read more > -
