    Not No Bar

    Ocean Park, Santa Monica

    Restaurant in Santa Monica, United States

    Why go

    Not No Bar is safest as a casual Santa Monica bar pick, not a destination dinner. Use it for a flexible date, birthday drink, or low-pressure solo stop when location and ease matter more than a documented chef, cuisine, awards, or named menu items.
