5 /5 Jürgen Schrade: The restaurant has only recently started opening in the evenings. Previously, it was better known for its café and delicious baked goods. We decided to visit the restaurant on a whim, were greeted very warmly, and were given a good table. Although we were tourists from Germany, we felt like part of the “family and friends” from the very beginning. The food is excellent (we had pizza, meatballs, and a delicious chocolate cake), and the wine selection is outstanding. The bread is delicious! The service is excellent and very friendly—we had the most wonderful evening there during our entire three-week trip to California. The restaurant manager is super nice and friendly, and we had very pleasant conversations with him. You can tell that he has ancestors from Europe and South America—he combines different hospitable cultures. If youre in LA or Santa Monica, you should definitely eat here! We wish the restaurant continued success!
