Family Restaurants near Santa Monica, CA

“Ordered soup for pickup. I got the vegetable soup and it was absolutely delicious. Wonderful broth and completely full of vegetables. It was ready very quickly. Plenty of parking.

Okay just need to update. I've had the soup several times and each time it is served with delicious rye bread which I cannot have as I'm gluten-free. I mentioned that this time on my online order. Fromins countered with two large pieces of delicious gluten-free rye bread. So this now means I can have the sandwiches that I've been drooling over... Yay! Game changer.“

“Delicious, a wonderful experience and loved the waitress!“

“biscuits “sent from heaven” Keyshia Cole voice Stopped by John O’Groats for some pre archery lesson fuel. Off rip, I knew it was gonna be bomb because my boyfriend actually has great taste and recommended it. I mean why would I date him otherwise? But I still had to be the one to taste it to believe it. Those biscuits put them on the MAP! I had lost faith in biscuits & gravy in this city. I have been let down time and time again because it was so weak. But these gave me hope for the future 🥹 I could see this place being my breakfast new normal. So if you ever want to stop by there, hit me up beforehand and we can brunch together🫶🏼🍽️ this is the type of place I would have FOMO over“

“My family and I have been going to the Good Neighbor for over 20+ years, and always great food and excellent service!“

“omg me encanta loaded cafe .my favorite breakfast place !!! chlaquiles con Carne azada en salsa Roja y un waffle to top it off...now they have pastries 3 leches and cheesecake are bomb 💣 😋“

“This is my breakfast spot of choice. I go for the huevos rancheros and the country potatoes. The salsa reminds me of home and what a simple, traditional huevos rancheros should be. They have a simple and standard breakfast menu. My kids get breakfast scrambles and steak and eggs. The coffee stays hot and the cup stays full. Always good service and always feel welcomed. Its far from high end but they do it right.“

“The food and drinks are great and the atmosphere is French meets Westwood :) My family and I have been back many times - at times the service can be slow, sometimes fast, but it's all part of the experience and most staff (through the years we've been customers) are nice.“

“I'm a regular here for their salads. Great options for keto. Always fresh leafy greens. Occasionally, depending on the cook, the chicken isn't grilled to my liking, so make sure to give specific instructions. Also it seems the day staff always gets it perfect, unlike the late evening. ?“

“The picture speaks for itself“

“My wife and I recently stayed at the Beverly Wilshire for two nights during a long weekend trip to the LA area, and we really enjoyed our stay. This hotel is an iconic spot in Beverly Hills, with a long and storied history and a perfect location for seeing the area. We received a great upgrade to a suite, which made our stay even more special and comfortable, and our interactions with staff were great. There was a small billing hiccup after our stay that left a slightly negative taste, but it got resolved, so I would absolutely return to and recommend this hotel. Trip Planning: As we always do when booking a Four Seasons, we reserved through a Preferred Partner travel agent, which enabled us to get free perks (I highly recommend doing this). For no extra cost, our reservation included priority early check-in, a room upgrade based on availability, a one-time $100 hotel credit, and a breakfast credit each morning of $90, which could be used in the restaurant or for room service. The travel agent we worked with was even able to confirm a double room upgrade in advance of our arrival, which was a pleasant surprise, especially since upgrades are often not confirmed until check-in. I also appreciated that her contact at the hotel really seemed to want to make sure we got the best room possible for our needs. We had booked a Signature Balcony Room, so a double upgrade was to a Rodeo View Studio Suite. The hotel explained that the upgrade would take away our balcony, but we could keep the balcony and have more of a panoramic view of the Hollywood Hills (which they thought we might prefer), if we did a single upgrade to a BW Studio Suite instead. We agreed to that, and they assured us they would block us into one of their best rooms in that category. We ultimately got upgraded even further, but the room we had was spot-on for what was promised location and view-wise. Arrival: It can be slightly confusing to find the entrance when arriving for the first time. A lot of GPS apps will lead you to the recognizable hotel entrance on Wilshire Boulevard, which isn’t actually the main entrance for hotel guests when parking a car. There is a valet at the Wilshire entrance, and it’s a good spot to be dropped off in an Uber, but the main entrance for hotel parking is in a larger porte cochere between the two towers of the hotel, accessed off of a side street (El Camino Drive). Upon arrival at the correct spot, I was immediately greeted by Florian on the valet team, who was there during much of our stay and provided good service throughout. He welcomed me to the hotel and assisted with my luggage, assuring me that the luggage would be brought up to our room immediately if the room was ready, or as soon as possible later in the day when a room became available. I went to the front desk to check-in, and was assisted by a very friendly and professional front desk clerk. She provided a warm welcome and gave me the good news that our room was ready (before noon), and that it had been upgraded further to a one-bedroom suite, all of which was great to hear. She also provided an overview of the extra credits that were included in our room rate and how to use them. It was a great check-in experience, with the only thing missing being that there wasn’t any sort of welcome beverage offered, which is typically at least water, if not champagne, at Four Seasons hotels. After check-in, the hotel also did a great job of coordinating things to get me settled into my room. I found my way to my room and a very friendly bellman was at my room within 2 minutes after to deliver my luggage and assist with getting settled. I also appreciated that within 10 minutes after that, I received a phone call from the hotel’s Guest Experience Manager, welcoming me to the hotel and apologizing for not having been present at check-in to welcome me. It was nice to have the extra welcome and to know that there was someone I could reach out to if we had any problems. Room: In order to pick a room type at this hotel, it’s helpful to understand how it’s laid out, which isn’t intuiti“

“The breakfast and regular burritos here are delicious. Not to mention, super cheap! They come with fresh totopos, not the ones from a bag. They're quick, attentive, and downright lovely people to interact with. Love this place! Thank you, guys.“
