Food Scene

The food is great. It's a small place in the middle of a strip mall. They're close by, very convenient and they have happy hour deals on food and sake. My favorite...the Not My Roll and their garlic edamame is delicious.

My favorite is the peel and eat shrimp. It's right on the marina so you can watch the boating activity or see some beautiful docked boats. Also has a nice bar for night life.

Simply my favorite restaurant and has been for years. It sits right over the waters edge and the waves come crashing underneath it! In my opinion, this is the best place for a romantic dinner or drinks and dinner on the outdoor patio. They have a dj on some days. Make a reservation.

Sightseeing

Experience the Venice Beach boardwalk!!! Plenty of vendors and entertainment. Also, there is a drum circle on the weekends (where locals come out and join in with one another to just vibe with whatever percussion they bring). For skateboarders, there is an amazing skateboard park. Stroll or jog along the beach, roller blade or skate, rent bikes, scooters, or people movers...dining or drinks.

Day trip....or spend the night there. It's a quick boat ride from San Pedro or Long Beach to a small island where you can snorkel, hike, golf, go diving or just relax, eat a quick lunch and head back before the day ends. It's a nice day trip.

A must for tourists. Shopping, dining, movies, live music, entertainment, holiday events, a dancing water fountain and an old fashioned trolly ride. Christmas is great for the tree lighting event and summer is great for outdoor concerts, but this place is for every season. Dinner, a little shopping, and/or a movie. A great romantic date night.
