"Established 1934, this classic restaurant bears mentioning since it is the oldest restaurant in Santa Monica, and maintains a South Pacific nautical theme. Vintage memorabilia (menus, napkins, etc.) fill a display case outside (which also includes inexplicable but welcome pictures of Betty Page), and you’ve got to love the mermaid above the door. Inside you’ll find grass hut booths, hula girl cocktail napkins, weird nautical stuff, a mermaid room, and tropical drinks - but no actual Tikis. The food is steaks and seafood, with an emphasis on the steaks." Galley Restaurant, Ocean Park district, 2442 Main St., Santa Monica CA (310) 452-1934
