I met a colleague for lunch at M Street Kitchen, on Main Street in Santa Monica. Service was polite and courteous, restaurant was a bit noisy but acceptable. We both ordered the Bibb Salad with Beets and Ahi Tuna; looked delicious and tasted just fine. Shortly after lunch my stomach started feeling a bit upset, by 5:00 pm, I was... More

First time here and it was a good place to eat. Good bar menu with very good prices. I had a burger and tuna roll too. The larger menu gave you plenty of choices and the prices could become a bit steep. Lots of families with small children so prepare yourself for some noise. Its a large place and the... More

This restaurant has a great happy hour. It runs from about 4pm to 6:30pm. The pulled chicken nachos are a must! We also had the hamburger sliders (comes WITH fries), the sushi, and dessert. If you come early, there is parking in the lot, but you can only park in the stalls marked "retail". Otherwise, there are metered parking on... More

Had brunch/lunch on a recent Sunday afternoon... place was packed. Very cool inside. Everything from the salad, tacos and sandwiches we ordered were delicious (although had to order fries on side, did not come with sandwich). The regular lemonade and the adult M Street lemonade were awesome. Fun place to go with family or friends.

Sometimes the staff is very slow- to seat you- take your order- get you the check. But if you are not in a rush- this place is fun with good food. Lots of options- good indoor and outdoor seating- amazing cookies and friendly staff.

Came here for Brunch on a Sunday with pretty high expectations on the basis of friends' recommendations. The service was ok, the food was disappointing. The eggs were acceptable but the hash browns were greasy and the bacon was positively dripping with grease, the slices of bacon didn't look like they even got drained before they were thrown on the...

We've travelled literally the length and breadth of the 'States over the years e.g. Route 66. Been to LA before too. We've had variations in cost, quality and quantity, but I don't recall ever having a cold breakfast unless it was meant to be! I had oatmeal which was luke warm, but tasty. My wife had Eggs Benedict which was... More

Coming from Chicago we were surprised to find this yummy Lettuce Entertain You restaurant in Santa Monica. The menu for a perfect fit for our group of 6...since some were looking for breakfast but the rest of us wanted lunch. We had delicious fish and ahi tacos, an ahi burger and even pancakes and french toast. The portions were quite... More

Having just gotten in from cold and snowy Boston (literally - my plane had taken off in the snow), I was looking for place to eat lunch outside. On a recommendation from my hotel, I walked a few blocks over to the M Street Kitchen and had my choice of outdoor seats, both sunny and shady options. I thought it... More

Delicious food - Delightful staff! Lots of Breakfast choices and everything we ordered was very tasty and fresh! Fruit smoothie was definitely worth getting as were the Chocolate Chip Pancakes! Look forward to returning next time we’re in town!
