Guidebook for Venice Beach
Food Scene
Amazing food, decor & wine list. Don't ask for food substitutions, they won't do it! Prepare to wait for a table. Best to go early, make rezzie, head to a local watering hole til they call your cell.

Sceney, amazing walk-up breakfast joint. Amazing egg sandwiches (sauteed kale, bacon), cortados (small coffees), open faced sandwiches. I wake up thinking about this daily. Then always end up going.

Best sushi on AK by far. No signage out front, you'd never know it was there. Everything is delicious. Not cheap.

Great coffee, barista-driven cafe with slight attitude, but you can easily work a smile out of most. Long line, be prepared to wait. VERY much a Venice scene.

Drinks & Nightlife
Imported from NYC, this is the main bar on AK. Only beer and wine served. This brick, concrete, iron and glass institution is worth a trip. Candlelit, always with good music. Crowded but fun.

Like Joe's down the block, this is an AK institution. Classy and a bit more upscale that most on Abbot Kinney, Hal's it worth a trip if for nothing else just a drink.

Also called "Oscar's" this is a good spot for indoor and outdoor seating. Watch out for the dare to try to hot salsa - it's no joke.
