SoCal's most romantic bars

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.

long overdue for Santa Monica. Its a gorgeous chic bar without they typical yahoos of the local pub atmosphere that has dominated the scene. very nice staff, great drinks. Excellent vibe.
This bar attempts to be like an exclusive Hollywood Bar by having a rude bouncer, rude bartenders, etc. Santa Monica is definitely not Hollywood. I would expect this type of behavior from a bouncer in Hollywood but not in Santa Monica. I wouldn't recommend this place at all.
Major snobbery, overpriced and overrated...plenty of spots with a better vibe and cooler atmosphere in Santa Monica that don't try so hard...
Staff was very unfriendly and given how expensive everything is, you'd think they can do without the attitude. Staff treats customers like they're better than everyone. Food is highly average and drinks are too expensive. When it gets crowded, there's no room to even walk because the place is so...
This place is fantastic! Great place to take a date. Great decor, laid back vive and fantastic food/drinks. Suer cool NYC flavor. Let's hppe it doesn't get ruined by the frat boys in the 'hood.
This bar is super cool, just like their spots on the east side. Very good food, great they open at 5 so we can go after work. I love their drink selection too sidecars, tom collins, pimms cup, amazing!
The owners of The Bar and Magnolia have hit a home run! Everything about this lounge is perfection. The decor is chic yet comfortable and welcoming. The drinks are big and strong. The crowd is fun and great looking. And the food is delicious. Plus you can play backgammon. Just...
I am often looking for a place to go for drinks on the westside and am not a fan of the sportsbar/frat scene that seems so prevalent. I was told about Chloe recently and was thrilled when I walked in! It is beautiful and loungy but there are snacks too....
Beautiful space, great drinks, have yet to see another space like this. Service was very friendly, burger was perfect. Perfect for a small group of friends to get together.
Long time patron of Voda - was excited about the new incarnation. Unfortunately have also had problems with the bouncer. Don't think that thuggish behaviour goes with the ambiance or the neighborhood. If you have had problems with the bouncer, please leave a note here and email me at gmark77#gmail.com....
