Restaurants near Third Street Promenade

Amazing rooftop bar! Delicious food & fun drinks!

I had one of the most wonderful servers ever. She did a great job and very attentive to our family. She went out of her way to make sure that my parents were having the best experience possible. The food was great. The atmosphere was very pleasant not very loud everyone in the family really enjoyed themselves. We had a variety of oysters, steaks The Chilean Seabass was amazing along with the Keylime pie

Great experience. The restaurant was a 5 minute walk from the Santa Monica Pier where we attended the Cirque du soleil show. We had reservations and we were seated promptly. The steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection. The service and food were great. Definitely will be back.

I haven’t been to the IVY at either location in many years, but the ambience was more romantic than I remember and the food was great and frankly it seemed like the prices had been reduced, though it’s still pretty expensive. My wife had guacamole and chips as an appetizer, excellent, and the chopped grilled veggies salad, which we have been replicating at home for years also excellent. I had the corn chowder, delicious and lobster tagliatelle. The food was all great. We had a bottle of Pellegrino and two coffees and it was a little over 200 bucks with the tip.  our reservation was for 6 PM and it was fairly empty when we got there and the food rolled out fast. Great service. 

Tar & Roses provides an exceptional dining experience. The beet and yogurt dip, along with the octopus skewers were divine. The fried red snapper is a MUST. Also, the service is top notch. When we wanted to switch tables, the staff immediately accommodated us. Then, to receive an email and text from management thanking us for dining in the restaurant was a nice touch. This restaurant does everything right!
