Just a few blocks from the waterfront, our restaurant in Santa Barbara operates in a century-old brick building originally home to an industrial linen service for seaside hotels. While the Douglas fir floors, soaring ceilings, and glassed cupola have always been features of this historic structure, the sweeping arches facing State Street were added after much of the building crumbled during the 1925 Santa Barbara earthquake.

Built in 1917, the historic building now home to our Santa Monica restaurant was once a transfer station for the narrow-gauge Red Car line, Los Angeles' first mass transit system. It was later the repair house for the world-famous Pacific Ocean Park, home to the oldest wooden roller coaster west of the Mississippi. These days, we're still a stone's throw from Venice Beach, heart of where L.A. goes to play -- and eat.

I had the grilled swordfish and it was excellent. Everyone at my table enjoyed their choices,,,sole, burger sliders. Service was great. Very large open restaurant so some may find a bit noisy but we were able to converse without problem. I would go back and I will Bread is very good and the happy hour prices seam to be a deal.

Lots of seafood on the menu. But also great food for those who may not like seafood. Also there's a car charging station a block away.

I was looking for great fresh seafood and a good atmosphere, but this wasn't really my kind of venue. The portions are quite large, but the food pretty average, verging on bland. It's a big semi- industrial looking restaurant, noisy, big TV screens, big bar. If you are looking for delicious fresh seafood, delicate flavouring, relaxed but a little classy this is not the place to go. More rowdy and noisy than that. our waitress was nice but I found her just a little over the top in the 'charm' it just felt put on, with no heart in it. $170 for four of us, one course each. No alcohol, seemed steep for food that was un-memorable... you decide. I'd pay more for something I could recommend, but this place, no, it really did nothing for me. Sorry. wish I could be more positive.
