The Best Restaurants Near Santa Monica's Third Street Promenade - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"It’s been a good 40 minutes since you’ve seen your two teenage sons, and at this point, you don’t care. Go wait out their eventual phone call with a glass of wine, charcuterie, and freshly shucked oysters at Esters. The casual bottle shop-wine bar hybrid on 7th St. is best known for its great happy hour specials (all day on Sundays and Mondays), but the extensive wine list and raw bar options make Esters worth the pit-stop whenever you’re in the area. The $95 grand plateau comes with two delicious crudos and a dozen plump Canadian oysters, which you can enjoy on the front patio before scolding two 14-year-olds for buying a Juul." - brant cox
