Hinterland
When you think of 'hot spot restaurants,' let's be real, you don't think of heading to Santa Monica. That was until Hinterland. The adorable restaurant is dark and candlelit, setting the mood for a romantic night. They are known for their seafood, and oysters can be found on most tables. That's a total date night must, right? The menu is small, but the meat and seafood dishes are super gluten-friendly. West-siders, go here!
Hinterland, 2917 Main St, Santa Monica
