I was looking for a place to meet a friend near the ocean. The menu at this restaurant looked…read moredelicious and we decided to give it a try. There is both indoor and patio dining. The vibe is casual and beach chic. All of the food is delicious and this is one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. The restaurant has very few parking spaces on site. The only downside is that the paid parking is ridiculously expensive. Anywhere from $10 to 15 minutes to an hour, $20 for two hours and the price goes up and up. There is one hour metered parking nearby which isn't very convenient if you have to keep going back to refill the meter. If you're lucky you might find distant street parking that is unpaid. This is nothing against the restaurant, but as Venice as a city in general. High prices like these without any special validation, are sure to keep people from coming to these places at all if you can't afford it. Perhaps that's how Venice would like to keep it. Only people who can afford the parking are allowed to enjoy these businesses.

Entire experience was fantastic from hostess to paying the bill…read more I didn't have a reservation, hostess sat me immediately and she was really friendly and cute (respectfully). The ambiance was very chill California energy (I'm from New York lol), which I loved. The decor also was giving spa vibes in a good way. Byredo hand soap in the restroom, okayyyy! My server Joshua was super friendly and attentive, appreciated his good energy. Breakfast menu had a lot of delicious sounding options but I went for the breakfast burrito with hot sauce and it was fantastic. Breakfast burritos are very hit or miss IMO and this was a hit. I also had two cappuccinos bc I am a caffeine fiend and also jet lagged and they were both very good. Highly recommend to anyone in the neighborhood. I just realized they have other locations throughout LA too which I'm sure are also good but this one did not disappoint at all.

Moved on to another place in search of good energy .

Call ahead for patio reservations!…read more This place is really pretty! Lovely decor, comfortable seats and an amazing view of the beach! We didn't know we would need reservations for the patio so we had to sit inside.. it was still lovely. My friend and I both got the chorizo breakfast burrito. It did NOT come with the pickled onions which we didn't realize until after we left.... The potato's were tater tots which was disappointing. I dont think any one expects tater tots in their burrito when it says "potato's." It was still good. Te salsa was a little spicy but I loved it. Side of avocado was 1/4 of an avocado. Huge burrito with tiny amount of avocado.. Friend got a mimosa and I got a French 75. Yummy Service was ok. They were busy so we didn't see our server much. We will definitely come back for the view alone even just for drinks. Lovely place.

Came here with a reservation on a Sunday afternoon!…read more We were sat down quickly and were attended by servers. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and was able to provide recommendations of dishes The ambiance outside was clean, private, and comfortable with space heaters on this particular day. The food! Amazing! Each dish was cooked nicely, great flavor, and decent portions The chicken was crispy and not too thick and the waffles were cooked very well! We parked valet as it was the only option since the streets were busy! Make sure to bring cash for tips!

Food is decent. Waiter knowledgeable but the experience is poor. They insist you order all at once…read moreand they will "course it out". That resulted in us getting appetizer, then salad and not enough time to eat that before mains appeared on the too small table for 5. It just feels like a factory and like they don't care to make it more enjoyable. They don't take substitutions or anything. Again fine but it feels like a bit of a grind rather than a relaxing dinner.

After hanging out on Venice beach in the afternoon, my cousin and I were looking for a spot to grab…read moreearly dinner before I was off on my redeye flight back to the East Coast. Surprisingly there weren't a ton near the main shopping street, but we immediately saw this place and there was availability on the rooftop. We grabbed it and off we went! We were surrounded by heated lamps which we actually needed since it got a tad bit breezy with intermittent mist. But fortunately, we got a great hostess who recommended some great options for us. The Japanese sweet potato was fire. The broccolini was the better complement to the Gruyère pizza. That pie had so much flavor and pizzazz to it. What a great way to end my LA trip! For anyone in the area, they should definitely come here for dinner.

Now coming back as an adult I was greeted and told about the specials and bar service. The light streaming in through the dining room windows was lovely and the shades that came down to block the sun were lovely and set the mood.

The modelo I ordered was lovely and not to mention our server was very accommodating and kind. The prices were fair and for desert we got Key Lime Pie which was delicious and didn't taste like fake food coloring. I'll be coming back here very soon.

The ambiance is beautifully done, modern coastal. Perfect for a comfortable but elevated dinner. We started with the bread service, chili wontons, and gem lettuce. The bread service was my favorite, warm, soft, and the miso butter was divine. The chili wontons were also a standout, especially if you enjoy dim sum. They had great flavor and balance. The gem lettuce was fresh and simple, reminiscent of Jon & Vinny's in the best way. For entrees we had the butter shrimp and Scottish salmon, both really good, no complaints. But honestly the appetizers stole the show for me. Would definitely come back just to try more of the starters. Such a good spot.
