Named “an iconic Venice Beach restaurant institution” with comfy indoor and outdoor booths and a super Venice Beach Vibe makes it the choice for locals, artists and the Hollywood crowd for over 25 years. Known for serving California comfort food using the best locally sourced ingredient from top natural purveyors; it may be most famous for the “worlds best” Mahi tacos featured in the film I Love You, Man. There’s lots more to savor like equally famous fried Jidori chicken, sand dabs, healthy salads and more. Out door patio bar with a palm tree growing out of it serves up popular watermelon and spicy prickly pear margaritas along with mojitos (they were among the first to serve them in LA), creative cocktails and lots of draft beers. The restaurant features Venice art throughout. An original California bungalow serves as the ultimate private party space. If you miss getting to Venice, try the LAX location in the Bradley international terminal (once it reopens after Covid) .Named “an iconic Venice Beach restaurant institution” with comfy indoor and outdoor booths and a super Venice Beach Vibe makes it the choice for locals, artists and the Hollywood crowd for over 25 years.
