SoCal residents, We were in LA for business, liked the menu and selection for lunch, not much of a crowd for lunch, however given the rough ride for last 2 yrs, still in the recovery mode. Bottom line, excellent service, simply outstanding food preparation, good value, it would be nice to have a location outside of the mall, but nonetheless we would definitely return.

Great food and service. A little pricey, but that’s Santa Monica, I guess.

Food was incredible, really good. Service was great. The only thing I would say is the seating could be a little more comfortable. Also, the area around where was seated didn't seem real clean. It hadn't been swept or wiped down. Would recommend this place and hope to come back, if I ever want to deal with the homeless up there again.

Good food with lots options and a nice staff. Very clean and relaxing vibe. Could increase the wine selection though.
