Quiet, great food, local - a special place

by huckfinster

A truly local place off the Abbott Kinney beaten track. Everything on the menu has been great in the 5 or so times I have gone there. Really good value as you being your own beer/wine, no corkage. Loved the pork sandwich, salmon was excellent, taco special a total deal. Candles & quiet, often there is just you and maybe another small group.

  • Pros: off the radar, bring your own, food is yummy
  • Cons: Can be chilly outside

Mellow Space and Delicious Dinner in Venice

by coopdedoo

I love this hideaway spot for dinner. The candlelit patio has a great feeling and everyone is attentive, warm and friendly. The food is consistently delicious and reasonably priced especially for this neighborhood. A real gem.

I Love This Place

by TNTB

I have eaten here several times for lunch and dinner and love everything about this place. It’s a warm and friendly family owned restaurant which is so refreshing to see now a days. The cozy patio atmosphere is relaxing. They go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of and have a wonderful experience. The quality of food, the taste, the presented and the portions are exceptional. Plus it’s priced very reasonably. A shinning star among the restaurants of Venice, believe me I have eaten at all of them.

  • Pros: Best Food in Town
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Great Lunch and Dinner

by Mrdankumz

I have been to Marla's four days out of the last five and once was for dinner. I have not tried something i did not like yet. They make everything from scratch from their sauces to their desserts and everything tastes so fresh! Simply Amazing.

  • Pros: All the food is spectacular
  • Cons: Service is slow when busy
