Everyday Westside Dining Staple Nook Bistro to Close After 15 Years | Eater LA
"Closing on March 26 after a 15-year run on Santa Monica Boulevard, this bistro is inviting patrons to come in for "one last meal" and to "revel in the amazing phenomenon we created," according to owner Brian Frith-Smith; he emphasizes that the camaraderie shared with the Nook-going community is what made running the business meaningful and enjoyable for everyone who works there." - Farley Elliott
The vibe, aesthetics and atmosphere of the restaurant are spot on. The food was unfortunately unbearable, it was under seasoned and just didn’t taste good. It was aesthetically pleasing and the wording on the menu was convincing but when it comes to taste, they can really do better. The only thing we enjoyed were the fries and we had three different small plates.

Such an amazing restaurant! Views are spectacular and food is absolutely delicious. Harley, the chef and owner, really goes out of his way to make every guest feel special. Highly recommended the butter chicken, Avo and feta pizza, the butter chicken pasta and the wings!

Place was decent, and the people had good service. I'll need to come back and try the food but everything else was nice. And their beer was cold 👌🏽

A lovely new estabilshment in Mtunzini. Jennifer was a perfect host with pleasant disposition,she walked straight to my table introduced herself and enquired on whether I was helped.
A heart warming conversation followed thereafter.
The Nook is going to be the people's favourite restuarant in Mtunzini.
Well done to Jennifer, Mpule and the entire team for your excellent service. Wishing you all the best on your new venture.
Looking forward to visiting in the near future
Keep on shining.

A must-visit if you‘re in the area! Wonderfully curated menu, high quality food, perfectly spiced. We waited a bit for our food to arrive, but in the end that was just an indicator for the fresh preparation and well worth the wait. Service friendly and attentive. Big recommendation.
