    The courtyard is the reason to come: massive pines overhead, string lights threaded through the branches, and enough Santa Monica evening air to make you forget the drive on Wilshire. Fia is an Italian steakhouse that leans into the setting with a menu built around local organic produce and the kind of clever touches that sneak up on you. The crowd tends toward people who've been doing this longer than the valet has been alive.

    The dishes from the writeups

    • Hamachi crudo

      “Seafood-driven starters continue to open the meal, including hamachi crudo with lime leaf and coconut dressing or spicy ahi tuna cigars topped with caviar and black garlic aioli.”

    • Beef wellington

      “Steaks remain the centerpiece, from prime ribeye cap and filet mignon to an elaborate beef Wellington, while house-made pastas and rich sides like dauphinoise potatoes and miso bagna cauda broccolini round out the experience.”

      Michelin Guide
    • Sticky toffee pudding

      “Desserts keep the decadence going with options like sticky toffee pudding with brown butter ice cream or a towering chocolate soufflé finished with Grand Marnier anglaise.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
