Food Scene

They have a delightful outdoor patio and the cafe is owned by the sweetest French woman. It is an order-at-the-counter place that is one of the most reasonably priced places to eat in the area. My favorite is the spinach quiche, which comes with a delicious salad. I buy their dressing in their little french goods store, it's so good! It's very laid back, and they also have delicious coffees. It's a great place to stop at on the way to the beach.

This is a great spot that is a short walk from my place. Their food and coffee drinks are very yummy, and it's a great Venice scene complete with outdoor patio. It can be a little on the pricier side, but is a great place to eat, especially for lunch.

This is a great place right across the street for grabbing a good coffee and a snack, or posting up to do some work. They have a motorcycle shop with books, gear and collectibles connected to the cafe, and often have little events there, too. You can pickup a cool hat or t-shirt and rep your motorcycle status.

In front of Zinque, you can pickup public bicycles to ride to the beach. Look for the green Hulu bike rack in front of their place. Zinque is a hip little spot serving french fare. They are a coffee shop by day, and hip wine bar by night. The ambiance is great and it's a good spot to meet people.

If you want a nice dinner at one of the best spots in Venice, owned by a local chef, with farm-to-table ingredients, this is the spot! I love Gjelina. The restaurant is gorgeous, the food is excellent, and there is something for everyone here, including vegans. Even their veggie dishes are excellent. Think: small plates, wood fired pizzas, and dishes you can't find anywhere else.

This is a great sushi spot with local flare. They recently remodeled and I love how open and fun it is now. They have great cocktails, great sushi specials, and great Cal/Japanese items other than sushi, as well. I am a fan of their Lychee Martini and sitting at their window to people watch along Abbot Kinney.

This restaurant is amazing! I highly recommend for dinner of brunch. It's a beautiful restaurant inside: think exposed brick and gas lights. It's a little pricey, but their take on traditional Italian classics is impeccable.

This is a great place for a date night. It's a small little yellow house that they converted into an intimate dining space serving handmade pastas and creations like "Home-Made Red Beet Tagliolini Pasta in a Marsala Quail Ragú served on a bed of Taleggio Cheese Fondue." They also have great steaks, and a great wine list. The setting is very romantic and the service is always excellent.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Townhouse is an original speakeasy in Venice, first opening it's doors in 1915. There is an upstairs bar and downstairs speakeasy that often features live music, burlesque, or comedy shows. Upstairs features a pool table and lounge areas. It can get packed on the weekends, so I advise getting there on the earlier side (before 10p).

You can eat at The Whaler, but I consider it more of a bar. It's a great place to post up on their deck and watch the sunset with a few cocktails and appetizers. It's hands down the best place to watch the sunset in Venice. They sometimes have live music or DJs downstairs late night, as well. It's a true locals scene and a Venice institution.
