Seventy-Seven

This understated speakeasy in Culver City is the kind of place to have up your sleeve when you and your date are looking for a quiet corner. The vintage wallpaper, gleaming leather bar stools, st... read more

Waterloo & City

What was once a random greasy spoon now has a pedigree. New owners come from Le Bernadin, et al. Doesn't look like a diner, unless you squint down the bar that once held toast and eggs. Now, martin... read more

Earl's Gourmet Grub

It makes sense that a company who started selling food in the out-of-doors would settle on an indoor-outdoor space for their permanent location. There's a big patio, and the inside stays airy with ... read more

Chego

Kogi, hands down, started the food truck trend in L.A. And those crazy kids have opened an actual store, no wheels. Bright, bold colors, an homage to their color-coded trucks. The location is rando... read more

Choppe Choppe

Is it groupthink? Borrowing? Whatever it is, 2010 is apparently year of the salad/sandwich concept. This one does seem to take its cue from a rather popular concept Downtown, but hey, why mess with... read more

Mezza

Excellent, straightforward addition to the office lunch break scene that turns Culver City into a foodie zoo every afternoon. Focus is on the freshness and seasonality of food offerings. Apparently... read more

Pitfire Artisan Pizza

Pitfire Pizza is a pretty decent collection of three restaurants around town; Pitfire Artisan is meant to be the shining jewel. Decor is less CPK and more industrial-chic, with an open kitchen and ... read more

Saint Amour

Culver City's main drag is home to one of L.A.'s best restaurant rows. This particular joint might be the most elegant; luckily, not the most expensive by any stretch. Authentic bistro with traditi... read more

Gyenari Korean BBQ & Lounge

Korean BBQ's typically a low-budget, cornered-away affair, often hidden in the recesses of strip malls and Koreatowns, waiting to be found (or: already discovered) by their respective town's in-the... read more

Father's Office 2.0

Santa Monica’s popular beer and burger institution has opened—to much hype—in the Helms Bakery complex. The cavernous spot has 72 taps, plus wine, and a classic crowd-pleasing menu. Owner Sang Yoon... read more

Akasha

It’s all-natural, organic, local hippie dogma with a side of celebrity spotting: Chef Akasha has friends in high places. It’s a bobo addition to Culver City’s big-time restaurant scene. Not the bes... read more

The Point

You might think it’s all about the salads (made to order). You might think it’s about the soup (made every day, in-house). But no. It’s the desserts. Peanut butter sandwich cookie. Carrot cupcake. ... read more

Mandrake

Culver City exploded with artists and their work. But where to go after the galleries close? Some intrepid souls reopened an abandoned gay bar and turned it into arts central. Lines out the door af... read more

Fraiche

There isn’t a best-of list in the country Fraiche isn’t on. French food (boudin noir), Italian food (agnolotti), and a delightful combo of both (passatelli with chicken) on the menu. Cr... read more

BottleRock

Winos' nirvana where all of their copious vintages are available by the glass. Excellent concept liquors one-up in an effort to obscure Ikea furnishings, cheese plates, and pain-in-the-keister crow... read more

Tender Greens

Asking where we could 'tender some greens' without a prescription, we were pointed here for tasty, organic herbs and foliage that had us energized and glowing, rather than eating a pint of ice crea... read more

Ford's Filling Station

Culver's cool but would Han Solo eat here? Gastro-pub of Old School cool and egotistical service. Crammed with pretty people who had never heard of the Western city, drawn by so-so overly rich "I'm... read more
