"Some places are just right for stopping in on a regular weeknight, and then there's Fia Steak. This no expense-spared spot is just right for getting dressed up and feeling festive, even if all you're celebrating is the end of the week.It has the classic masculine steakhouse look down pat, complete with dry-aged steaks on full display. The menu is a classic paean to meat with opulent touches (spy the separate sections for caviar and Champagne). Seafood-focused starters kick things off—keep an eye out for specials like the Dungeness crab salad topped with a seafood panna cotta. Of course, steak is the reason you're here, but the decadence continues through dessert, with either a soufflé or a seasonal strawberry trifle with basil ice cream." - Michelin Inspector
"A contemporary restaurant in Santa Monica with an Italian influence, offering inventive dishes in a picturesque courtyard." - Kevin Chau

"Fia Steak, the more upscale "sister restaurant" of Fia in Santa Monica, is a bit ridiculous. Large dramatic portraits of Laurence Fishburne and Martin Scorsese hang on the walls. To enter the dining room, you must weave your way past the bar, a patio, and dodge servers coming out of the kitchen. But once you’re seated, you'll find a great Westside dinner option. Meals begin with an elaborate (free!) bread basket, filled with various rolls and sliced baguettes, accompanied by a side of butter and pan drippings. There are very nice steak, seafood, and pasta options: our favorite is the house-made cavatelli, which comes with truffles shaved tableside. There’s also something called a caviar "bump.” Take that as you will. Anyway, it's a fun date spot. Come with someone you really, really like." - Kat Hong
"Fia Steak serves Italian-inspired large format steaks in an intimate dining room. Fia, which has been a solid Santa Monica dining destination from Michael Greco and chef Brendan Collins since August 2019, has split off its Wilshire Boulevard space into a new restaurant called Fia Steak, an intimate 48-seat dining room designed by Adam Picker and Morpheus Design. The mixed theme design has everything from church stained glass and exposed brick walls to leather banquettes and tasteful clubby artwork all meant to showcase Collins’ ode to the classic steakhouse when it debuts October 21. An open kitchen allows diners a full view into the butcher shop-style setup with aging cases, adjustable-height wood-burning grill, butcher block counter, and hanging copper pots." - Matthew Kang
