Location:
1333 3rd St Promenade, Santa Monica, CA 90401
Restaurant Type:
Mediterranean
The Real Take:
The Hummus Bar Express is an awesome spot for grabbing authentic Mediterranean food when shopping in the 3rd Street Promenade. Don’t expect to find parking easily or grab a quick bite on the move. The shops and outdoor entertainment makes for a great atmosphere if you’re not opposed to massive crowds, specifically on the weekend. Outdoor eating is a great option with the ocean breeze lingering. The real estate and food quality make it a little pricey, so be sure to check for Groupon deals. This is a must-try.
