22 Best American Restaurants in Marina Del Rey

Old Lightning Bar
2905 Washington Blvd, Marina Del Rey

“We had eaten at Scopa, and John our server told us about the "speakeasy" next door, that is a rum/scotch/whiskey/bourbon/champagne/tequila tasting room. Though they do have cocktails, this is your chance to try things you might never see again, as well as names you might have heard about on difficult items to find and taste. We had let our John know that we had an interest, after eating dinner, and met Nick. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and excited we were interested. Luckily, we were in on a Thursday, so we were able to pop over about 9pm. He checked on us a few times, and you could tell he knew how to allow a variety of customers, explore this experience. It is suggested you make a reservation on Resy. We got to meet Oscar who was amazing. You kind of get to bring up what your tastes and interests are, and a price range. Tastings are pricey, but it is such a cool/chill intimate room, and a unique experience. We talked with Oscar and made up a tasting to optimize our first experience he called "Around the World". We were educated and presented with such a cool array of Rums, Scotch, Whiskies, and Bourbons. You don't feel rushed and the amount of information they know, and share is almost like a Master Class. We ended up going through a variety of tastes from Japan, England, Scotland, America, Spain, and France. It will probably be a very rare experience for me and my friend, but we felt special and appreciated that we wanted to experience this. Thank you to the partners that created this collection and found these amazing people to let you make the most of your experience.“

Sinder Lounge American • $$

“As crazy as our Birthday party was, in the bar, our server, Jose, was awesome. There were 2 or 3 other large gatherings at the Marriott hotel, where Singer is, adjacent to the lobby. However, we felt completely cared for. I ordered the classic burger...I am a burger aficionado... It was awesome! I could say that I am ashamed of all the parmesan fries I ate, but nope, not sorry. They were awesome, as well. I don't know if it's a good or bad reality that this place is only a couple miles from my home because...Oh who am I kidding? I would return to this place of great service, atmosphere, fun and food, no matter the distance. Great job Marriott hotel and Sinder restaurant. We will return...often!“

Firestone Walker Brewing Company - The Propagator Brewery • $$
3205 Washington Blvd, Marina Del Rey

“There are many types of beer.
In particular, the main 805 was a clean-tasting lager, and the unfiltered UDBA had an impressive, savory and sweet taste.
On the other hand, the Nitro Velvet Merkin had a fairly high alcohol content, but the soft vanilla flavor and aftertaste were really good.
For food, I ordered fish and chips, which were crispy and delicious.“

“Living in MDR and Venice for almost 15 years, crazy to how many of the nicer restaurants have closed. It looks completely different than 10 years ago. No more Chaya, Tasting Kitchen and the Rose just closed. Obviously the Ritz has the staying power of corporate dollars. This is a great location in the marina and always has some good wines and champagne on the menu.“
