Top 5 Hamburgers

Macdad: also love Ikko for sushi. Right around the corner from Anjin. Also love Javiers for their mole. El Matador in Costa Mesa is a great mid-scale Mexican Restaurant and Taco Mesa is a great taco stand. I love their tacos calamari and tacos al pastor.

PS: Father's Office has a newer sister restaurant in Culver City, which is about 30 minutes closer than the Santa Monica location to OC. While at the Dodgers, go to Phillipes The Original for French Dipped Beef Grinders. A LA tradition.

Javier's in Laguna has one of the best grilled/sauteed Calamari steaks I have ever had. Always perfectly tender and juicey, never overcooked and rubbery.

Try La Sirena Grill in downtown Laguna on Mermaid Street. The best organic sourced Mexican food in the country.

Hit Sunin Lebanese Cafe again last night for dinner. Corner of Westwood Blvd & Santa Monica. Great value buy dinner. Terrfic rice pilaf, juicy marinated kabobs, creamy hommos, and the Almaza Lebanese beer really is good. Tasty dinner for two w/ a couple of beers - ~$40 (ours was ~$60+, but I always overaeat)

Javiers is good, great scenery, and the view is nice too!!
