Thu Nov 05 12:43:12 -0800 2009 1120920 RobinCH 1 5158868 Akasha does a wonderful seasonal lunch.... For something more casual, I always love Blue Bird Cafe on Washington http://www.bluebirdcafela.com/ --Dommy! Thu Nov 05 12:55:54 -0800 2009 5158832 10659 Dommy 1 5159047 I am a big fan of Tender Greens, on Culver Blvd near the merge with Washington. Website is www.tendergreensfood.com Both the flank steak and the albacore tuna are recommended.

Thu Nov 05 18:46:46 -0800 2009 5159047 15398 Discokill 1 5159971 Maybe Samosa House or the new Bawarchi for a quick Indian bite? Or Annapurna (for a very decent uthappam)? I have not been to The Point since Mark Peel took it over, but will give it a try very soon. I am not sure what you mean by "wonderful"? Great food? Lovely setting? None of these are pretty. Thu Nov 05 20:38:13 -0800 2009 5158832 101478 beezees 1 5160172 Fraiche and Le Saint Amour are both great lunch choices. Fri Nov 06 00:52:33 -0800 2009 5158832 10728 New Trial 2 5167431 If I have the budget for a $20+ lunch, Akasha or Le Saint Amour are my first thoughts. Cafe Surfas is a bit less, and I adore their buffalo burger with the green salad. Then there's S&W Diner, which has a lot of good stuff, but also quite a few items that look better than they are. Mon Nov 09 10:56:28 -0800 2009 5160172 11478 Will Owen 1 5167345 I would recommend Gloria's Cafe on Venice / Jasmine. Fantastic food, great service, and great prices. A lot of my friends from Sony go here for lunch, that's how I was introduced to it. Mon Nov 09 10:29:32 -0800 2009 5158832 1117603 cheffie777 2 5167394 Agreed. Gloria's is delicious, prices are reasonable, and pupusas are yummy. The restaurant is in a dumpy row of shops, but it has its own free parking.
