The matte black façade belies the bright and trendy interiors, which include cool white walls, wood flooring, and plenty of windows that beam with natural Californian sunlight. We love the exquisitely chosen tribal blankets, rugs, cushions, and plenty of colourful houseplants that greet you as you step through the door. But it's outside that things get truly intriguing. Step out into the secluded garden and chill out in the string chairs in the corner, before dining beneath the shade of the pergola as you indulge in the barbecued food.
You're only a six-minute drive from LAX, and you're closer to the beach than you think – Playa del Rey and Dockweiler Beach are just down the road. A fifteen-minute drive away is Venice Beach, where you can stroll down the unique coastal promenade and show off your abilities at the skate dance plaza before resting at a cafe with a refreshing drink. Head to the golden sand for some sunbathing, or catch the waves while surfing in the clear seas. Check out Little Tokyo, where lanterns hang overhead and the Japanese American National Museum transports you back in time. As the evening comes to a close, stop for some ramen before returning home to switch on the string lights, ignite the fire pit, and sit out under the stars at night.
