Where To Take Your Long-Distance Significant Other When They’re In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Cassia is a French-Southeast Asian spot in Santa Monica that feels like a clubhouse for Westsiders. It’s always lively inside, and you’ll more than likely see a face from a Marvel movie or a fashion magazine at a nearby table. But staring at celebrities is only part of what makes Cassia a really fun place for a date night - the spicy wontons, grilled lobster, and excellent wine list don’t hurt, either. Make a reservation, but show up early. That way, you have an excuse to get a glass of wine at Esters next door beforehand." - Brett Keating
