Amazing Happy Hour, 5-8 every day, whole menu 1/2 off, fried chicken is insane, burger is ruinous! Patio is family friendly when open. Otherwise the bar in the basement can be one raucous good time.

Restaurant in the Fairmont Hotel. Simply the best restaurant in Santa Monica. It is a culinary experience bar none, but it's not cheap. However, the whole restaurant goes 1/2 price between 5-6pm.
