"Westside standard-bearer Nook Bistro is closing on March 26, ending a 15-year run for the Santa Monica Boulevard restaurant. Though the ultimate end is coming soon, there’s still time to step in for “one last meal and to revel in the amazing phenomenon we created,” says owner Brian Frith-Smith. He adds: “The camaraderie that we share with our Nook-going community is what has made running this business truly meaningful and enjoyable for everyone who works here.”" - Farley Elliott
