THE BUNGALOW

Restaurant · Santa Monica

"You completely forgot it was your long-distance boyfriend’s birthday yesterday, and he just called to tell you this isn’t working. Head to Bungalow, the sprawling bar/house/Greek system social in Santa Monica where you can get all the validation you need from a crowd that’s young, hot, and ready to get a little wild on a Saturday afternoon. Drinks aren’t cheap here, but the ocean is directly across the street and a cute guy from LinkedIn is looking at you, so things could be worse." - brant cox
