Cassia

Yep yep yep, this is the place for my stomach and taste buds to live out their most delicious secret fantasies. We ordered the chickpea curry, the sunbathing prawns, the Dan Dan noodles, the beef rendang and the pork belly noodles. The chickpea curry was my favorite, and the Dan Dan noodles a very close second. The sunbathing prawns were unlike anything I’d ever tasted. Incredible. Truly. Everything was perfect. I foresee us coming back in the near future. Nicole provided such a wonderful experience for us and we loved the smoky old fashioned she created. Thank you so much for a truly special evening.

If you like big, bold, spicy flavors, this is the place to visit! From the Singaporean Chili Crab to the Spicy Minced Duck Dan Dan Noodles, the dishes felt like an endless explosion of spices. And yes, the chef brings the heat. We also had the Crawfish Toast which was sweet and savory and the Kon Loh Mee which had a great, smoked char siu mixed in. Overall a great meal and probably the best I've had in LA. Definitely worth a visit if you like spices!

Cassia is such a solid spot—I’ve been maybe 5 times over the past 5 years, and the food is always on point. The flavors are bold, the dishes feel creative but not over-the-top, and everything’s just consistently tasty. Last night, they surprised us with some complimentary desserts at the end of the meal, which was such a sweet touch. The only thing I’d say is that it’s a little pricey, so maybe not an every-week kind of place, but totally worth it for a nice date night or celebration. Definitely one of my go-to spots in Santa Monica when I’m looking for something reliable and delicious.”

This could've been a 5 stars but the service was a bit interesting. I'll start with the positives though. Phenomenal food!! The Chickpea Curry, the Mapo tofu and the Kaya Toast were all very delicious. Everything was bursting with flavor, was spiced correctly and just felt so homey. Honestly, everyone should eat here because the food is that good. Where things were lacking though was the service. It seemed like we were being rushed and there was so much space still available. I do have to say, it wasn't as pricy as we thought it was going to be either which was a nice plus.

The food was good (can be described as modern asian) but a little too spicy. Service was mediocre. Had to ask several times for simple things. Loved the atmosphere and the vibe. Can’t stay much more. Overall worth a visit but I wouldn’t return.
