California Italian dining with ocean views and fresh pasta
"Sirena is a stunning all-day California Italian spot under a bougainvillea-shaded terrace on Santa Monica’s Ocean Boulevard. Given its more underrated stature at the upscale Georgian hotel, it’s usually not too difficult to get a prime ocean view from the restaurant’s streetside patio. The Pacific Ocean view pairs well with the grilled octopus, a crudo platter, pasta, chicken Milanese, and excellent desserts, including a tiramisu by lauded pastry chef Thessa Diadem." - Eater Staff
"Sirena (formerly the Restaurant at the Georgian) sits steps away from the ocean on a bougainvillea-shaded terrace. The ocean breezes pair well with everything on the Italian-inflected menu. Start with a crudo or two, along with pastry chef Thessa Diadem’s piping-hot focaccia, before digging into plates of linguine vongole, bucatini all’amatriciana, and gargenelli lamb ragu. Save room for as many desserts as possible, including the stunning, multi-layered tiramisu." - Rebecca Roland
"Sirena sits steps away from the glimmering Pacific on a bougainvillea-shaded terrace and serves some of LA’s most memorable pastas in the Westside. Whether digging into linguine vongole, bucatini all’amatriciana, or pappardelle ragu Bolognese, order a side of pastry chef Thessa Diadem’s piping-hot focaccia for sopping plates clean. Save room for as many desserts as possible." - Matthew Kang

"Kick off Christmas day with a waterfront brunch at the Georgian’s charming restaurant, Sirena. The daytime menu features Dungeness crab avocado Benedict and Maine lobster omelet, while dinner will bring a chicory salad with spiced poached pears, beef bourguignon, lobster fa diavolo, and butternut squash gnocchi. Book a table through Resy." - Rebecca Roland
