I have done some searches and read through the various posts on the forum, but I can't quite find recommendations in line with some of my requirements.. I'm trying to coordinate with a few different people on my trip to LA this weekend, so need to find a bit of mediocrity...
- Something that can accommodate 5 on short notice this Saturday night
- Asian food preferred (not Thai)
- Something near Santa Monica
- $100 per person limit for food and drink
This group isn't the kind that really takes well to fine dining, so I'm looking for something fun. We did Boa Steakhouse in SM last year, and everyone loved it. Personally, I saw through the trendy, over-priced steak, but it worked out well for what we wanted. I really enjoy something different, so a shabu shabu joint or something would be great. Thai is out cause one of my friends is Thai and he'll only eat his family's Thai food. A "fusion" place would work, since some of the people really enjoy Sushi, but not everyone.
Thanks..
I realize I am essentially asking for a recommendation to a half-assed restaurant, but this is what will go over best.
