- Cobi'sBib The pink building with green trim is the first sign that Cobi's will charm you, and then there's the dining room, where frilly, floral touches (Pink wallpaper! Mismatched tables and chairs!) and a patio with more flowers set the scene for a lively atmosphere. Discover Thai and Malaysian delights along with other influences on this broad Southeast Asian menu. Start with dumplings, satay or curry puffs, those crispy triangular shells filled with curried split peas and potatoes sided by pickled onion and tamarind ketchup. From there, pick a curry or a wood-grilled main dish such as grilled prawns681m
- Mélisse★★ Michelin Since opening in 1999, Chef Josiah Citrin’s flagship has been a Santa Monica mainstay. Through its many evolutions, the restaurant has sought to offer a certain kind of fine dining experience that will never go out of style. Slip in through a discreet side entrance to enter the enclosed space that combines a vibe-y underground feel with classic luxury. One can expect the finest cutlery and plates, gorgeous presentations, plenty of tableside saucing, and a level of French decadence that borders on gratuitous. The results are indulgent. Truffles, wagyu, uni, and crab weave their way across intri2.6km
- Citrin★ Michelin Although located in the same building as Chef Josiah Citrin's sister restaurant Mélisse, in lieu of its sibling’s tasting menu-only format, the offerings here afford more choice, with a modest prix-fixe alongside à la carte options. Chef Ken Takayama's cuisine sends forth signature combinations of French technique with an abundance of California's seasonal produce, focusing on updated takes on classically rooted flavors with modern, global touches.Spendthrifts will revel in the opulent caviar and truffle add-ons; but even without a dollop or shaving of luxury; the impressive cooking here, such2.6km
- ColapastaBib Run, don’t walk, to this charming spot. Nestled into a breezy locale just a few blocks from the Pacific, this modern trattoria packs a big culinary punch, thanks largely to the considerable talent of Chef/owner Stefano De Lorenzo (of Piccolo). On the highly focused Italian menu, expect to find a fragrant soup of the day; a few heartwarming antipasti; as well as a fair amount of beautifully executed pastas, made by hand at a station located front and center in the space. Favorites may include tender calamarata, tossed in a smooth and bright tomato sauce, dotted with oregano, creamy stracciatell2.3km
- Pasjoli Chef Dave Beran’s Santa Monica bistro is irresistibly charming, a breezy space buzzing with activity and accented with wood beams, exposed brick and gleaming white kitchen tile. Brioche with chicken liver mousse and shallot truffle jam or bay scallops with green garlic beurre blanc reflect an unapologetically French approach. There are a number of dishes intended for two, and the pressed duck is the pinnacle of luxury. Should there be room to spare, chocolate soufflé paired with vanilla ice cream or a strawberry tart with whipped cream make for a sweet sendoff. No time for a full meal? Take to174m
- Seline You might not expect to be served ice cream in the middle of savory courses, but at Chef Dave Beran's Seline, surprises are the hallmark of a deeply personal meal. His ambitious tasting menu has high-concept underpinnings, meditating on themes like the progression of the seasons. A meal may begin with the likes of a miniature garden of edible succulents in a "soil" of caraway rye crumbs, dusted with a fine cauliflower snow. Black cod infused with wild bay laurel, paired with mussel cream and fennel offers classic sophistication, while lamb loin with burnt strawberry jus and wild greens shows a579m
- Chulita With its mod Mexican good looks and its Venice location not far from the beach, Chulita is primed for sunny SoCal days. Tacos are served all day at this spot where Oaxacan-style, California-influenced fare rules. Slake your thirst with a tequila or mezcal, then tuck into a starter, such as the quesadilla de calabaza, made from dark masa, filled with Oaxacan queso and garnished with pipián de calabaza. Tender barbacoa takes it up a notch. Tortillas are made in house, and tacos are always a good idea. Order the tinga de pollo, filled with juicy chicken, or go straight for the steak taco with its992m
- The Lobster True to its name, this lovely perch overlooking the Santa Monica Pier has earned its reputation for great American seafood thanks to its focus on Maine lobsters and much more. Don’t let its beachy location lure you into thinking that this is a tourist trap, though. Tightly spaced tables don’t leave much room for privacy, and the service seems focused on efficiency, but those expansive views and steaming seafood more than compensate. Lobsters arrive at the height of temptation — find them beautifully steamed until the meat is tender, rendering that side of melted butter all but superfluous. Sea1.5km
- Élephante It would be easy to write off this rooftop haunt as just another trendy spot, but that would be a shame as the gorgeous space comes with some serious kitchen talent. The cactus garden is a lush perch, but ocean views from the sunset room, replete with natural word and stone, are unbeatable.Contemporary small plates infused with Southern Mediterranean influences is what this team does best, and diners would do well to share. Dishes deliver deliciously surprising flavors, as in a rich whipped eggplant spread served with olive oil in the center and fresh-baked puccia bread on the side. Rigatoni v2.0km
- Gjelina In more than a decade, this buzzy restaurant has spawned a to-go counter, highly popular bakery and cookbook. The ambience is ceaselessly upbeat, resulting in a scene that is a major draw among pretty young things.Brick floors and creeping vines fashion a picturesque, garden-like setting that is an idyllic match for their simply prepared Mediterranean menu of pizzas and shared plates like saffron spaghetti with bottarga, confit tomato, and garlic or grilled hanger steak with a rhubarb chimichurri. Vegetables, many sourced locally, are an absolute must with winning options like Japanese sweet p2.1km
