Lab Art Santa Monica

Los Angeles

An extension of Maré on Melrose, the Santa Monica outpost serves many of the same dishes that made the original a runaway date spot success. Chef Eric Greenspan's seafood-and-noodle mashups, crispy octopus, and Moorish chicken are all here. This location doesn't have a patio like the Santa Monica one, but it does have two-levels -- and it's on the convenient side of the 405.
