Santa Monica, Los Angeles · restaurant
A former warehouse reborn as a sleek, clubby neighborhood hangout wrapped in Frank Gehry bones—exposed rafters, tropical greenery, and a bar that glows just bright enough to feel exclusive without the velvet rope. Come for eclectic, world-built fare (duck tacos, butter-chicken-meets-fried-rice, uni pasta), stay for synthy Friday nights where negronis flow, tables bump, and service remembers your name like you’re an old friend. It’s Santa Monica with a little edge and a lot more sass.
