Hal's Bar & Grill

1349 Abbot Kinney Boulevard
Phone: (310) 396-3105
The former Maitre De of the old West Beach Cafe opened Hal’s in 1987 in the heart of Venice. Hal's is an airy and spacious neighborhood restaurant and best of all they have great art on the walls by prominent locals as well as jazz on Sundays. Highly recommended!

Baja Cantina

311 Washington Blvd
Marina del Rey
Phone: 310.821.2252
Old time classic Mexican food and Margaritas just a couple of blocks inland from the Venice Pier. Mexican food is the order of the day with fresh tortillas made on the premises. A great bar scene on the outdoor patio as well. My favorite has always been the "40 miles of bad road" burrito.

Phone: (310) 823-38789
The Canal Club has been called “one of the most exciting restaurants in Los Angeles”. This eclectic neighborhood restaurant was named the Canal Club due to the clubby feeling of the Venice neighborhood and that it is situated a block away from the famous Venice canals.

Capri

1616 Abbot Kinney Blvd
Venice
Phone: (310) 392-87779
Stark white walls hung with lush paintings, twinkling tea lights and intimate candlelit tables make Capri a prime date destination. This minimalism contrasts with the colorful northern Italian menu.

Chaya Venice

110 Navy Street
Venice

Chaya Venice has become the premier gathering spot for local artists, musicians, and movie industry moguls on Main Street for years. They call their fare La Nouvelle Cuisine Franco-Japanese and it's truly wonderful.

C&O Trattoria

31 Washington Blvd
Marina del Rey
310.823.9491
Extemely popular with the locals, you will wait for a table but it's worth it. It might be so popular because when they bring a jug of wine to the table they trust you to keep track of what you drink. Sort of a Italian Coccina atmosphere with Pasta, seafood and steaks in huge portions, and really garlicy rolls. Takeout and delivery also. Block inland from the Venice Pier.

Hinano's Cafe

15 Washington Blvd
Venice
Phone: 310.822.3902
Really more of a bar than a cafe, but that doesn't mean the foods no good. There are people I know who will drive 150 miles for a Hinano burger and I personally find the Chili cheese dog the best priced hangover cure I've ver had. In the 70's Hinanos was know as a biker bar, today it's still not for the suit and tie crowd.Just 2 blocks from the Venice pier.

Every neighborhood needs a James Beach. You can go in and have a luxury meal in the sectioned-off, lily-white dining room or you can hang out in the open-air bar festooned with board shorts. The crowds are big but never so crushing that you feel the walls closing in on you. Website

Killer Shrimp

523 Washington Blvd

A little tucked away gem. Killer Shrimp's name pretty much says it all. They serve shrimp with broth and bread exclusively. Get it to go and enjoy it on the beach. A slight walk to Washington and Via Marina.

Good bar scene upstairs with the standard food fare. Great place to catch sports events at the south end of the Boardwalk because you can watch from the sidewalk through the huge opening windows if the place is full. Website

Sidewalk Cafe

1401 Ocean Front Walk
Phone (310) 399-5547
Better know for people watching that the food. But hey, you're in Venice, and the people are probably more interesting than anything you could ever put in your mouth. The street artists like to work the captive crowd just on the other side of the railing. Biggest patio on the Boardwalk and a full bar also. Menu & Reservations

Stroh's Gourmet

1239 Abbot Kinney Blvd
Phone: (310) 450-5119
Packed with beachgoers, dog walkers and locals, this deli is pure Southern California in terms of clientele. Inside, however, one may feel transported to Europe, with shelves full of international treats and deli cases stacked with unusual cured meats, pates and cheeses.
