Had a nice lunch here on a Monday afternoon with a girlfriend. They were surprisingly very busy but they were able to seat us immediately at one of the very few tables open. I got the pan asian salad with chicken but there was unfortunately no chicken! I was not charged for it and our waitress was very nice so it was fine. There were though large chunks of fresh mango that were really good. I didn't expect the noodles to be actual noodles that was a nice treat as well. My BFF got the veggie burger and I stole a few fries as I have been doing to her for multiple decades now. We spent the lunch trying to decide what the blood red pieces were in her burger and decided they were hopefully beets!? Definitely on the pricier side but that is expected right on the water in Santa Monica. Very beautiful dining room and happy we found them in the middle of a Monday

This place is the best spot to eat at in Santa Monica. We have been coming here for years and everything on the menu is good. We typically venture between the spinach artichoke dip (my girlfriend's favorite) and tuna tartare (my favorite) and the chicken sandwich (also my favorite). The French dip is also great. You can't go wrong with any of the sushi or salad orders either! The servers are very professional and this place prides themselves in very good customer service, and they very much deserve it. The wait staff always smiles and checks up on you and you will never go without a full glass of water! Ambiance is nice as well and is very lively. 9/10

Everyone's table had the artichoke dish and there's a reason why! It's so so tasty! They have this parsley flavor and dried crispy parsley on top but let's talk about the sauce omg!! Get a side of fries and dip!! And thank me later! There's a lot of seating it's definitely a Santa Monica vibe here. Steak is good and cooked nicely! Service is great as well

Best baby back ribs in the Westside of Los Angeles. Hannah our server is terrific. Service with a huge smile. Hot towels to clean your hands. Fantastic assortment of deluxe sushi rolls. Always the best. Grilled artichokes with their special dipping sauce will make anyone change their mind about artichokes. Finger licking good! I've coming here for 35 years. One of my favorite places to dine.

Came here on a Tuesday evening and the place was packed - from the bar seating to the tables! The cocktails were just okay but the steak and the grilled artichokes were delicious! the sushi roll we got was also good with an interesting twist. I'm not sure what was in the roll but it was crunchy and refreshing. Dessert was very underwhelming. I would recommend going elsewhere for a sweet treat after dinner.

I love Houston's so I had to try this location, which is their sister restaurant. The menu is the same, but with a few additions different, and the food is delicious just like Houston's. I ordered the wood-grilled local sausages & chicken thigh. It was cooked to perfection and I was able to substitute my side of coleslaw for broccoli instead. The service was really great from the hostess she had a really good spirit. I our waiter was ok wish he mad more confidence with Job, but he was ok. My order was wrong but they did fix the issue with no problem. The ambiance is nice and gets pretty busy. They have a nice upstairs seating area and great for many outings. It's located right in the heart of Downtown and close to the beach, so the vibe is perfect. Lots of street parking and garage parking as well. Overall, I will be back of course! Enjoyed my meal and atmosphere.

My dear friend was in town since she moved to Florida and we totally lucked out with finding a place at the bar! The servers behind the counter really drill you to order food and drinks which was a bit annoying but they backed off after they brought the wrong order for her and the wait for the correct order was super long. They were going to make up for it with free fries but my friend declined. Which was rude on her part since I would have loved the free fries but I guess I saved on the calories instead lol! The soy sauce bottle for our sushi was also loose and got all over the white napkin and on her white blouse. Wild night for her with list of disasters lol! I did enjoy my sushi, wine and Diet Coke but I felt bad for my friend and for myself especially that I missed out on some free fries?! Food is always good here as is the ambiance. Definitely coming back for some fries now that I've ranted so much about it!

Always amazing and always a stellar experience. If you want to get just a taste of their immaculate service, how about this example: dirty Martini is served and 1/3 consumed. Waitress returns with a fresh chilled glass and pours the remaining martini into the glass. Now that's service! The meal was incredible
