Fodor's Expert Review Salt Air

A white marlin is camouflaged by the stark white walls in this hip Venice seafood spot on trendy Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Groups and daters pop in for brunch, lunch, or dinner to shuck oysters by the dozen or enjoy tender grilled octopus by the tentacle. The menu features an array of fish, and specials are determined by the freshest catch of the day. A small but potent wine list moves things along nicely and dessert is capped off by coconut parfait with cacao meringue and marinated berries.
