About

Since 2005, The Hungry Cat has offered the highest quality fish and meats matched with Southern California's abundent seasonal produce.
The result is not simply a seafood house, but a continuously evolving restaurant, following the seasons, but always remaining true to the product.

With a focus on the artisan, The Hungry Cat produces its own in-house smoked meats and seafood, curing and pickling, as well as featuring a unique farmers market driven cocktail program, esoteric wine list and rotating local beers.

Zagat Review

Why it's hot: Ever since David Lentz opened his popular seafood concept The Hungry Cat north of LA (Hollywoodwas first), it brought a new contemporary spin to the SB dining scene. The room is always buzzing with locals and visitors alike, everyone slurping oysters on the half shell, sipping fresh-fruit cocktails and more.

Must-order: You can't go wrong with this menu. Some favorites include the market lettuces with egg, avocado and lemon; oyster shooters; seafood platters; grilled octopus with tandoori-spiced yogurt; braised mussels with coconut rice and braised bok choy; clams with chorizo, chickpeas and harissa aïoli; and the Pug burger. As in LA, brunch is fantastic.

Insider tip: Mondays are the time to go — all oysters are half-price all day long.
