Korean American fusion cafe with diverse dishes & drinks
"Your direction-averse cousin insisted on waking up early to see the sunrise over the ocean, only to realize that’s not possible here. Now, it’s 7:45am and you’re slumped over outside a Philz Coffee wondering why you have such a hard time saying “no” to people. Go heal yourself at Interstellar. The fusion-y Korean American restaurant is open all day, but we particularly love it for breakfast because you can walk right in. They serve everything from waffles to breakfast sandos, but we’re partial to the smoky, spicy chilaquiles." - brant cox
"With a menu that swings from Korean to Japanese to Mexican to Italian and back again, even the pickiest eaters will discover something great at Interstellar. This all-day cafe is one of the neighborhood’s best sit-down options - we’ve yet to try anything here that we wouldn’t endorse. Slicing through the crunchy katsu is practically meditative, and paired with a scoop of rice and curry creates the perfect bite. You’ll have similar perfect-bite experiences with the breakfast burrito, turkey club, and bulgogi burger." - sylvio martins, jess basser sanders
"With a menu that swings from Korean to Japanese to Mexican to Italian and back again, even the pickiest eaters will find something great for brunch at Interstellar. This Santa Monica all-day cafe is one of the neighborhood's best sit-down options, and we've yet to try anything here that we wouldn't endorse. Biting into a fluffy milk bread and egg sando is practically meditative. You'll have similar perfect-bite experiences with the breakfast burrito, cotto ham croissant, and the black truffle linguini with a poached egg." - jess basser sanders, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"Steps from Third Street Promenade, Interstellar is an overachieving all-day restaurant serving dishes that are as creative as they are delicious. This Korean American restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so expect to find everything from chilaquiles to chicken katsu curry on the daytime menu, and entrees like creamy mentaiko linguine and black truffle kimchi fried rice at night. Their tiny little nook of a dining room only has a handful of tables, but the food and shochu cocktails are worth squeezing in for, even if it’s by yourself." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, cathy park
"Curry katsu plate Interstellar is the best sit-down breakfast and lunch option in Downtown Santa Monica. The small cafe’s Korean-American co-owners nail lots of dishes from lots of cuisines - like bulgogi burgers, katsu curry, pasta, chilaquiles, breakfast burritos, club sandwiches, and more. It’s practically meditative slicing through the crunchy katsu with your knife, and scooping it up with a bit of rice and curry to craft the perfect bite." - the infatuation los angeles crew
