Seaside on the Pier

Three levels rise above the Santa Monica Pier at Seaside on the Pier, from the ground-floor Seaside Sandwich Company's salads, sandwiches and soft-serve up through a full-service dining room called The Grill to a Rooftop Lounge with the only bar on the pier and unobstructed ocean views. The kitchen runs fish and chips, hand-tossed pizza and burgers, and weekend brunch adds bottomless mimosas. The rooftop keeps its own full menu and bar separate from the counter service downstairs.
