"Diners have been settling into the red leather booths at Santa Monica’s Chez Jay since it opened in 1959. Vodka fans will enjoy the 1959 Tini, made with Tito’s vodka and olives for a sharp and salty sipper. Pair the cocktail with an excellent Caesar salad and a side of truffle fries for what may be the ideal snack. On warm days, head for the outdoor patio deck and take in the ocean air." - Rebecca Roland
