Orla By Michael Mina Offers Oceanfront Mediterranean Cuisine For Dine LA

SANTA MONICA, CA — Orla by Michael Mina is among the 480 eateries participating in Dine LA, which runs through Aug. 8.

Located inside the Regent Santa Monica Beach hotel, Orla is offering three prix fixe menus for restaurant week: brunch ($55), lunch ($35) and dinner ($95).

"DineLA gives us a chance to show off what Orla does best: bold Mediterranean flavors, peak-season ingredients, and a laid-back elegance that feels right at home on the coast," Orla General Manager Brendan Heather told Patch. "Whether you're joining us for a laid-back brunch with ocean views or an elevated dinner experience under the stars, the menu is designed to bring bold flavors and a bit of summer indulgence to the table."

Some of the highlights include baklava French toast served with Harry’s Berries strawberries, pistachio and smoked cinnamon; tomato-ginger glazed salmon, served with saffron couscous, dill yogurt and blistered cherry tomatoes; and ember-roasted rosa bianca eggplant, served with preserved lemon quinoa, tomato jam and serrano schug.

Menu and reservation information is available on Dine LA's website.

Dine LA, the region's twice-annual restaurant week, runs from July 25 to Aug. 8. Diners are invited to enjoy special prix fixe lunch and dinner menus — the multi-corse offerings range in price from $15 to $65 and more.
