A genuine Italian Cuccina, specializing in fresh seafood, the Bistro of Santa Monica near Cloverfield Boulevard is housed in a stately historical building with its original tin ceiling and stained glass windows. The restaurant offers live music every night and features several signature dishes prepared by the master chef including a mouth-watering array of antipasti and an Italian seafood soup called Cioppino "Pescatore Italiana." Follow that with the Bistro's special dessert, Chocolate Souffle. All served by a friendly and professional staff.
