"It’s been a few years since Cassia opened in Santa Monica, but this upscale Southeast-Asian restaurant is still one of the most popular restaurants in the neighborhood. With a large, industrial space that looks like it was borrowed from downtown LA, this place is filled with every date night and dinner-with-parents happening in Santa Monica whenever it’s open. So on those nights when you just want some kaya toast and spicy wontons, and not a grudge-match with the maitre d, the walk-in bar is where you should plan to go." - brant cox
