Food Scene

Great coffee, pastries, and salads. I especially love their homemade lemonade! And it's walking distance, and great if you're too tired to cook. Their soups for dinner are great. Lunch is great too!

The food and coffee is amazing and you are literally across from the ocean. Main street is also a real cool spot to shop around and walk.

If you want to enjoy a brunch with your feet in the sand and have a really good Mojito, go here. I don't like the lunch menu so try to make it before 11AM. Then enjoy a Malibu private beach.

This is the best Mexican restaurant on the Westside and just down the street! Order the Pollo Asado or the volcano. You can't go wrong. Delicious food and low key. Their fruit juices are so refreshing

This is by far one of my favorite places to walk. I love going later so you can catch the sunset there. You can walk and dream of having a little condo on the canals and peek into beautiful places.

This is 15min away by car from our home. The coolest hike in LA. We actually saw Tom Hanks a couple times hiking up here. Fewer people and nicer views than any other hike in LA.
