Gail H: Cucumber martini, lamb & apple Vietnamese meatballs - perfect meal
Mindy Johnson: No Wi-Fi. Veggie burger is pretty good.
Showtime Network: A delicious American bistro tucked away on the Westside. Bacon and blue cheese shoestring fries – need we say more? -Kacy & Cori, The Real L Word

Untappd: Amazing little bar right near pier! Tons of beers on taps, plus an outdoor patio in the back!
ZAGAT: Vegetarians can find a fair amount of selections on the menu, and the back patio is great during warm weather (it’s also often quieter than the main room).
Charles Edge: Hmmmm, do I want the fish and chips or just a stout?!?!?

Dave Whelan: Parking is always tough here, but now the reward is baked goods from La Boulange. San Francisco comes to Santa Monica!
Jon Sanchez: This is the best place to work here. Quiet for work, solitude, don't have to worry when you go to bathroom if your stuff is safe.
Gregg Fuller: All but one of the baristas are super friendly and helpful. God help you if your get the one who isn't.

Superb: We order from here all the time (curries, pad thai, chow mein...yum.) The food here is so flavorful that even the non-vegans don't miss the meat!
✨Pun Bandhu ✨: Great food at great prices + the staff is so sweet. Loved masaman curry, great depth of flavor, esp w/out fish sauce! I also did a massage, they drove me a mile away on back of moto to their parlor!
Carly Jamieson: Yellow tofu curry w brown rice. Addicted.
