Marina + Playa, Los Angeles · restaurant
The signature shrimp arrives in a spicy, slow-simmered broth that’s been going for ten hours by the time it hits the table, served piping hot with French bread built for soaking up every drop. Set right on the marina with dock-and-dine access, it’s as much waterfront stop as it is restaurant, with a hidden upstairs speakeasy behind a sliding wine case that opens into live tribute bands and comedy nights at Killer Yacht Club.
