“My husband and I hosted an intimate wedding dinner at Cobi’s and I could not recommend it enough. I was blown away by my experience start to finish. Even before the dinner, the event host, Camila and the manager, Aaron were so professional and communicative. On the day of, the service was fantastic, the room was beautiful, and the food was delicious. I’d recommend Cobi’s to anyone wanting to host a special event, date night, brunch or family dinner. Apart from their events, we’ve come for both brunch and dinner so I know it’s consistently great.”
“Everything about this place felt right. From the hostess, to the flowering 💐 decore before going into the restaurant, to the vibe, to the interior warm decor, and the workers. The positive energy was evident, and you can feel and see it amongst not only the workers who seem content, but also the patrons. Don't get me wrong, but the food was the star ✨️ of the show. The crispy rice salad 🥗 was amazing! I want to re-create this dish, but I'm sure it won't come close to how I experienced it. Definitely a must-order when we go back to So-Cal (NorCal person represent! Side-note, our server was wearing a 49ers 🏈 Tee, and he admitted a friend gave it to him. He joked that he's a bandwagon with pride & a smile. I respect that! He said he doesn't want to be associated with a losing team, and we laughed! I agree). Getting back to the restaurant review, let's continue to keep the vibe pf how good the food is. We asked for his recommendations, and we happily obliged tp order the fried chicken and the roti wraps. The fried chicken 🍗 was crispy, seasoned perfectly, and paired well with everything we ordered. I wish we ordered steamed rice 🍚 to go with it, because in my upbringing, that's what we did.....eat steamed rice with every protein, lol! Luckily, we had crispy rice salad that allowed me to indulge the chicken with. The roti wraps were so good, and filling. We had one of each, and I enjoyed both of them instead there own ways. I would have both styles again. Great job to everyone who is involved with this restaurant. I hope you continue to do great things!”
“Came here on our last day in Santa Monica before heading home, and it was the perfect send-off! We were seated right away, the waiter was incredibly helpful and friendly. The food arrived surprisingly fast, piping hot, and absolutely delicious. Every single dish impressed us, we all agreed it was the best meal we had in Santa Monica! Even the non-alcoholic drinks were super tasty and refreshing. Highly recommend!”

“This is one of those must try places if you’re in the area. It’s very unique with tables with mixed chairs, an outdoor patio and a covered outdoor area. Great date spot. I had the Roti wraps both the meat and veggie. I preferred the veggie but both were good. The veggie was just insane. The mushroom satay was my next favorite. With 3 different sauces / salsas to dip them. Very unique, again insane. Nasi Goreng was a nice accompaniment and was good but not as rich in flavor as the first two. But helped balance. I got the shrimp version. Again, go here, you won’t be disappointed.”
