DK's Donuts@Santa Monica ★★★

Cronuts in LA. Simply delicious. The donut shop is 24/7 and has plenty of cronuts, which means that they will never run out. You can fix your Cronut cravings anytime now. Dessert anytime. No line too.

Nutella Strawberry Cronut $3.95

Don't worry - Cronut is carefully placed in a sturdy togo box.

Enterprise Seafood Co@Santa Monica ★★★

Great Seafood. Love their Ahi Poke. Scallops in the Scallop Risotto tasted like it's missing some salt, but if you eat it with the risotto at the same time, then it would taste great. Mussels were fatty and great. Lobster Bisque was yum yum. Went with a $15 for $30 Groupon.

prime pan-seared sea scallops served over a creamy seasonal vegetable risotto

Traditional Hawaiian Ahi Poke $9.95
