Santa Monica-based Mexican restaurant to take over longtime Palisades favorite
By Dolores Quintana
Prima Cocina, which has a Montana Avenue location in Santa Monica, will be opening a new location in the Pacific Palisades at 15246 W. Sunset Boulevard which used to be the site of Kayndaves restaurant.
Prima Cocina’s website says that Prima is a Baja-inspired restaurant and explains more by saying that the restaurant is a, “reflection of the spirit and essence of Baja, California. Baja is a diverse region both in culture and geography, which inspires our cooking. Our menu blends elements of the deep culinary heritage of mainland Mexico with the lighter, ocean-inspired, unique coastal cooking of the Baja peninsula, fused with the natural, produce-driven approach of California cuisine. Vibrant fresh herbs, smoky dried chilies, fresh Pacific seafood, bright salads, savory tacos, and a focus on grilled food express these regional inspirations and our distinctive take on tradition.”
The website states that the new location will have a full bar and serve craft margaritas and cocktails.
