About

Located in the former Voda Bar space, Laurie Mulstay and Ron Marino's brand new Chloe offers Santa Monica's discriminating drinkers sophistication without snobbery.  Understated French-inspired design lies at the heart of Chloe, with deco accents, sconces and low banquettes. From the same winning team that brought Hollywood The Bar and Magnolia restaurant, the menu here offers up small dishes to hungry bargoers, such as bacon-wrapped dates, cheese plates and crème brûlée.  The overall vibe at the tiny, but radiant lounge is meant to inspire return visits; with a warm decor and neighborhood vibe.  If the ex-New Yorkers who run Chloe's past success record is any indication (Magnolia is especially doing well), count on this Santa Monica gem to be around for many years.

"Great Place"
Posted by jacks on 12/19/07

I know the owners also. I thought the place was great. You must have liked the dingy Voda. Chloe is a big improvment to the space.
