"I love Chinois On Main! This place is trendy, immaculately located at the heart of Santa Monica, and the food is authentic yet elevated. It?s great for celebrating birthday and/or date night out with your loved ones. The drinks are neat, but my absolute favorite item on the menu is the Shanghai lobster ? and the catfish! Incredible flavors, perfectly seasoned, gorgeous presentation and well-balanced. I?m so pleased with this dish, as well as the desserts. The staff are kind, polite and efficient. It was a delightful dinner and I will definitely come back for Shanghai lobster ? the sauce is sublime, crispy spinach is fantastic. An extraordinary Chinese cuisine that has met globally recognized fine dining standards, totally worth the trip! ????"
