Discover Playa Del Rey
Meaning "Beach of the King," Playa del Rey is a small coastal neighborhood that embraces a sleepy yet sun-kissed styling and also boasts some varied dining options. In a sense, the town has a classic feel; it has comfortable bed-and-breakfasts and might remind you of the California surfing towns of the 1950s. As a result of the fact that Playa del Rey rests nestled between Manhattan Beach and Venice Beach, the small town has a varied food experience that will satisfy most palettes. You can expect to find places that specialize in Vietnamese dishes like Pho, various types of Mexican cuisine, or even New York-style pizza. Gastropubs are also taking off in the area, which is perfect for those looking to have a couple of drinks with their food.
