The Dinner Table at Chelsea (Santa Monica)

A Dinner Party Where Strangers Become Friends 🍽️🤝

Join us for our first dinner party at Chelsea, a Santa Monica restaurant that shares a family's culinary journey from India through East Africa to West London, and now to Wilshire and 25th. Enjoy an evening filled with New American cuisine infused with global flavors, creative cocktails, and the unique connections that arise when strangers share a table.

About Chelsea:
Chelsea is a welcoming, family-run restaurant by father-and-son duo Moez and Karim Megji. The menu features dishes like tikka masala fried chicken, harissa lamb tartare, and lobster sliders, reflecting their rich heritage.

The Ambiance:
Designed by Hema Persad, the intimate space boasts muted blue-greens with vibrant accents, plush booths, and a marbled bar serving some of the best cocktails on the Westside.
