Food Scene

Just across the street, this place is easy, friendly, and casual. It is great for happy hour or for a nice artisanal dinner. Probably one of the best Lobster Rolls in all of LA. The mussels, burger, and waffle battered chicken is also top notch!

If you like Vegan and Vegetarian food, but also enjoy eggs, this is an interesting spot with great gourmet, but affordable food. Its very close to the apartment and the walk there is lots of fun.

Really good Japanese Ramen with every type from Chicken to Pork, Chicken Pork Combo, Vegetarian, and creamy spicy Vegan broth (my favorite). Walking distance down Main St. in Santa Monica. They also have a great beer selection

Great Aussie Meat Pies with very unique flavors. They also have Vegetarian options. The sides like mashed potatoes and peas are really good too! Great if you want to pick up quick breakfast or lunch and good for groups or takeout.

One of my favorite quick bites to eat. Caribbean food with a great blend of Jamaica, Belize, Cuba, Trinidad. I love The Chilaquiles for breakfast or the chicken enchiladas for lunch or dinner.
