If you're into fine dining, then you're going to love this temple of high gastronomy. It's a bit of a divisive restaurant, but those looking for a chi-chi meal will rejoice. Born from the idea of Chef Jordan Kahn and architect Eric Owen moss, the Vespertine converges food, art, design and music for a truly immersive dining experience.

Check out this avant-garde eatery delights with minimalist aesthetics and bold, inventive dishes. Try the oatmeal with red currants and almond milk for breakfast or the beef tartare with smoked egg cream for lunch. They've got excellent filter coffee and espresso from Roseline and Coffee Manufactory, as well as tea from Song Tea.

We love this laid-back coffee spot. Housed in a lovely minimal space, it's a dreamy place to grab a latte with homemade hazelnut milk. Bar Nine redefines coffee culture with transparency, sustainability, and hospitality. They blend award-winning roasts, Pure Espresso innovation, and Ten's creative cafe experience.

One of the most thoughtfully curated art bookshops in the US, Arcana has occupied its Culver City space since 1984. The stock spans photography, architecture, film, design, and fine art – heavy on rare and out-of-print titles you won’t find elsewhere. The kind of place you plan to spend 20 minutes in and resurface two hours later.
