Marina Del Rey is a great dining destination with numerous waterfront restaurants overlooking the thousands of vessels docked in the harbor. SALT uses seasonal ingredients for its menu of mouthwatering steaks and seafood served in a stylish poolside setting at the Marina Del Rey Hotel. Tony P’s Dockside Grill is another prime spot for steaks and seafood with a shaded waterfront deck outside and a tavern inside with screens showing sports.
Next to the sands and palm trees of Mother’s Beach at Hilton’s Jamaica Bay Inn, Beachside Restaurant & Bar serves delicious coastal Californian cuisine for brunch and dinner. The Ritz-Carlton’s Cast & Plow restaurant specializes in chef-driven farm-to-table dining with dishes prepared using locally sourced produce, fish, and meat.
