Restaurants in Santa Monica
Cha Cha Chicken
Address 1906 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90405-1044 Map, Tel (310) 581-1684 Call, Website
This colorful beach shack is a convenient place to dine with children. The low key atmosphere, with seating in a pleasant covered patio and quick counter service help make everyone comfortable. While there is no kids menu, our kids enjoyed the steamed sweet potatoes and the coconut fried chicken (which we asked the restaurant to prepare in strips like chicken fingers). For grown ups, the house special "cha cha chicken" is a must. To Go orders are also available. more

Sunny Blue
Address 2728 Main Street, Santa Monica, CA 90405 Map, Tel (310) 399-9030 Call, Website
Sunny Blue serves Omusubi, a Japanese rice ball formed into Triangles, sometimes stuffed or seasoned, and wrapped in seaweed. For me, it's a great way to sneak some new flavors and foods into my kids who are drawn towards the sweet, sticky rice. For dessert, there's organic Japanese frozen yogurt. Yum! more
