A Dinner Party Where Strangers Become Friends

Join us for our first dinner party at Chelsea, a Santa Monica restaurant whose menu tells the story of one family's journey from India through East Africa to West London and, finally, to the corner of Wilshire and 25th. An evening of New American cuisine with global soul, creative cocktails, and the kind of connection that happens when strangers share a table.

Chelsea is one of Santa Monica's most welcoming restaurants, a family-run spot from father-and-son duo Moez and Karim Megji. The menu reflects the family's journey from India through East Africa to London and Santa Monica: tikka masala fried chicken, harissa lamb tartare, lobster sliders, and New American dishes layered with global flavor.

The room is intimate and beautiful, designed by Hema Persad in muted blue-greens with vibrant accents, plush booths, and a marbled bar pouring some of the best cocktails on the Westside. The Observer named it one of Santa Monica's best restaurants, and the restaurant's own words say it all: a setting "designed for conversation, connection, and dinners done well."
