Mexican Dining Beneath a Wood Ceiling on Ocean Avenue
Dine at Sol Agave among patterned tiles and pale upholstered chairs, with the bar anchoring a warm wooden room.
🪵 A Room Worth Reading
Sol Agave makes a case for looking up before you order. A wood slat ceiling runs across the dining room, while patterned tiles wrap the bar and pale upholstered chairs soften the rows of wooden tables. Bottles sit above the counter like a second skyline.
The kitchen brings contemporary Mexican cooking to 1733 Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica, with salsas and agave cocktails in the mix. The appeal is in that contrast between lively plates and a room with such deliberate lines. You can make the meal about the food, then let your eye wander from the tiled bar to the mural along the wall.
Take a moment over the details. The ceiling, the chair curves, the repeating tile patterns. Sol Agave gives a coastal restaurant visit a little architectural curiosity.
