Like most of the cities within the greater Los Angeles area, diners in Santa Monica can find just about any dish their palates desire. One of the most popular restaurants in town is Melisse, featuring French-inspired dishes like almond-crusted Dover sole and summer truffles. Indian restaurants are plentiful throughout Santa Monica, including Nawab of India, Akbar Cuisine, and Pradeep's. Rocco, just south of Santa Monica Boulevard, is essential eating for lovers of fresh, homemade pasta.
