I live half a mile from this place in the Marina. Can't believe I only discovered it tonight. Imagine 'Meat on Ocean', bursting with more flavor, if that's even possible. All the accoutrements induce eye rolls. Now, rib eye? Was a bit on the tough side compared to Meat's. But full of flavor, you can't put your fork down. Lamb rib appetizers were perfect. As was our server Brian. More...

Had dinner there last night for the first time and went with zero expectations. Was blown away by how delicious the food was, and I'm a vegetarian. The salads were beautiful and all the grilled vegetable dishes were perfect. The meat eaters loved their steaks and service/staff was awesome! More...

Delicious, delicious! The cabbage was amazing, and a must order. We had cod, steak and lamb, with the mushrooms, broccolini, and persimmon salad (seasonal item). The service was prompt and friendly, without being intrusive. Would definitely recommend! More...

Excellent!!! The atmosphere is very cool, modern, and comfortable. It was busy but the food came out in a good amount of time. My waitress was superb; she knew the menu well and could explain everything perfectly, and she was very pleasant. The food itself is family style, which we weren’t expecting, but it tasted excellent. The chef is Michelin rated and it shows! I will come back and I highly recommend. More...

Overall incredible experience. For three people we ordered the mushroom and beet tartare starter, an arugula salad, roasted carrots with ricotta and a waygu 12 oz. The tartare was the only thing I didn't love immediately. It was very good but the beet overpowered the mushroom. The mushrooms gave a nice meatiness to the dish. Salad and carrots we're perfection. The waygu...our server asked us if we wanted to omit the sauce garnish. We were hesitant at first and then said to omit it. The sauce is already on the table so if you want to add it later you can. I recommend leaving it off. The beef was perfection at medium rare. Service 5/5 as well. Appreciate a good pro tip on pricey steak. More...

Nice ambience and food was fabulous. Suggestion: leave salt and pepper on table and offer a basket of bread to soak up all that good sauce.

Their cocktail list was so creative for a charcoal theme. The duck was outstanding and the charred cabbage was so unique.

I come to this spot every time I visit LA. Try to get a reservation because it can be crowded, but I've had no trouble finding a spot at the bar. Place is fairly spendy, but you get what you pay for: Top-notch cocktails and wines with food you've never tasted before, especially if you like a charcoal smokey flavor. It's infused into just about everything. Go for a nice steak and don't skip on getting the chicken wings. Kitchen is open, so you can see right in and the atmosphere is elegant, but casual. Staff is great, too. I'll be back! More...

Simply perfect. Our server Rob set the tone with attentive service. The food was so good we ate well past fullness and didn't stop there: charred cabbage starter - never had such flavorful cabbage; duck - one of the best I've ever had; roast carrots - so many flavors; roast corn - sweet and citrusy, lovely spices, mmmm mmm mmm. The wine selection was interesting and reasonably priced. We had a table in the corner which made it perfect for a romantic dinner. Definitely coming back here, many times. More...

As an avid weekend BBQ host when I saw the concept for Charcoal my wife and I had to visit during our recent trip to SoCal. The chef has done am excellent job combining flavors in new and unique ways. Who knew you could make cabbage taste that good!We had a chef's tasting menu that allowed us try number of different dishes. There wasn't a single dish we tried that wasn't excellent. The wagyu beef was my favorite. The chef was able to create an excellent flavor without drowning out the natural beef. The char around the exterior was consistent and made me jealous! I wish I could create that same consistency with charcoal at home. The only downside is that now I need to step up my game at home in order to live up to the expectations he created. More...

Being walking distance from Venice Beach is ideal and they do have valet parking if you need it. The staff are genuine and attentive and the food is great. They even make their ketchup in house with their own secret recipe which reminded me of the ketchups I used to have growing up in Europe. The portion sizes were alright as well. I sat at the bar and the bartender was great, always filled my bottomless drink when my glass was empty and new the food menu as well. Definitely a great spot to grab a bite to eat More...

Omg! This place is great and the food is just amazing. I had the steak and eggs and my wife had a breakfast sandwich, and we both had a French press coffee. The sandwich was dare I say perfect and the steak was just butter. I know it sounds like I'm hyping this up but real talk it was really great food and the atmosphere was very chill. Shoot out to our waiter btw (Kevin I think) he was awesome. More...
