    WAVE Bar + Grill

    Machado, Los Angeles

    Bar in Los Angeles, United States

    Why go

    WAVE Bar + Grill is a good pick for casual marina-facing drinks or an easy meal at The Ritz-Carlton, Marina del Rey. At about $40 per person with casual dress and walk-in-friendly access, it works better for scenery, hotel polish, relaxed groups than for a chef-led dinner or serious cocktail crawl.

    About WAVE Bar + Grill

    WAVE Bar + Grill is a Los Angeles venue with a listed price of $40 per person, a casual dress code, hours that run from 11 AM to 9 PM on most days. The details are practical rather than descriptive: the available record confirms when it opens, when it closes, the expected spend, the dress code, but not a specific cuisine, chef, seating format, beverage program, or awards history.

    That makes this a page to use for planning basics. If you are considering WAVE Bar + Grill, build the decision around the confirmed details: casual dress, a $40 per person price point, hours that generally run from 11 AM to 9 PM, with an earlier 6 PM close on Tuesday.

    Book it for the basics

    The clearest reason to consider WAVE Bar + Grill is that its planning details are direct. It is listed at $40 per person, the dress code is casual.

    For most days, the listed hours are 11 AM to 9 PM. Tuesday is the exception, with hours from 11 AM to 6 PM. If you need a venue with confirmed late-night hours, a documented awards trail, or a specific dining format, use our full Los Angeles bars guide or our full Los Angeles restaurants guide to find a tighter fit.

    The first-timer play: keep expectations practical

    The confirmed dress code is casual, which makes it easier to plan than a formal dining room, but the available record does not confirm details such as reservations, outdoor seating, a happy hour, takeout, delivery, dietary accommodations, or a particular menu style.

    The safest approach is to use the confirmed hours and price as the foundation, then verify any details that would affect your visit.

    Where it fits in a Los Angeles day

    WAVE Bar + Grill fits best when you want a casual Los Angeles venue with confirmed hours and a known $40 per person price point. It is not possible, from the data here, to make stronger claims about the menu, drinks, seating, reservations, or service style. For broader research, compare it with other Los Angeles dining and bar options, but choose WAVE Bar + Grill when its confirmed hours, price, casual dress code match your plan.

    Bar context

    How it compares in Los Angeles

    WAVE Bar + Grill is the convenience pick in this set: easier to slot into a Marina del Rey plan than a venue that requires a more deliberate night out. Cast & Plow Bar is the stronger cross-shop if the setting and hotel-bar polish matter more than keeping the plan casual.

    For drinks-first intent, Old Lightning is the better target because the bar experience is the point rather than a supporting part of dinner. Dear Jane's makes more sense when the group wants a fuller restaurant-bar evening with a clearer sense of occasion.

    If value and ease are the priorities, Hinano Cafe is the more casual fallback, while Erewhon Venice works for a daytime Venice stop rather than a bar-and-grill dinner. Choose WAVE Bar + Grill when Marina del Rey convenience is the deciding factor.
