Belles Beach House 24 Windward Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90291

"Well, it was delicious, but oh so heavy. I guess it's to be expected from shrimp covered in mayo + ribs and fries. But of course there are more light dietary options available. The atmosphere is bright and fun. The staff was very friendly and helpful."

"Wow, group of 6 of us, we were all so impressed. From the drinks to every single dish we had, it was all incredible! My cousin is vegan and she had so many great options!"

"Beachy/tiki decor, with pricey, tasty food. The patio is lovely, with a view of the boardwalk, but is pretty exposed to the sun. We had reserved a patio table but found that the loose camo netting over the patio tables provided very little shade, so we ended up asking for an indoor table. Fortunately they had one available for our group of 7, although it was at the couches and one person had to sit on a little wooden stool, since the couches only seat 3 on each side of the table. Unlike the outdoor patio tables, the indoor tables with the couches are pretty low, like a coffee table, so you kinda have to eat hunched over your food, so it's not that comfortable. They also had bar tables inside, but they only seat 2. The food was good but very over priced for what you get. $26 for a small poke bowl; $22 for a teriyaki cheeseburger with fries. The cheeseburger is two thin beef patties, about the size of a double quarter pounder with cheese. Where they really stick you are the drinks. $18 for a mai tai. Sure, it's served in a Tiki mug, but you don't get to keep the mug, and the drink is mostly ice. Our group of 7 ended up with a $450 lunch bill (which included the 20% tip they automatically tacked on), and that's with most of us just getting a cheeseburger and 2 drinks. They gave our birthday boy a free shot glass full of Pina Colada, after we told our waiter we were celebrating a birthday and would like something with a candle in it. That was appreciated. Reservations and parking at Belle's are a hassle. Reservations are needed if you want to make sure you'll get a table, but they require you make reservations through the OpenTable app. No shows are charged $25 a head to the card used for your reservation if you don't cancel at least 24 hours before, and the app only allows you to make 1 change. Belle's has no parking lot, you must pay at the nearby public beach lots or try to find street parking at one of the meter spots. The public lot right across from Belle's on Windward is $10/hour, but if you make a left from Windward into the alley behind Belle's, the lot there is $15 for 3 hours."

"We came here while looking for a place where a group of people could talk comfortably. At first, we ordered drinks with a QR code at an outdoor table, and although the drinks were a bit expensive, there was a comfortable atmosphere and many attractions nearby, and the sun set was especially beautiful. After the sunset we went inside. The seats were very comfortable and the atmosphere was good. We ordered directly at the bar. The atmosphere of the store was very nice and impressive. If it's your first time coming to Venice Beach, I recommend you go there."

"Vacation vibe! 100% recommend the belles poke bowl. It’s just not your average poke bowl. With tropical fruits, it tasted light, fresh, appetizing and flavorful. You can even wrap the food in the lettuce, adding more fun and yum"
