Recently changed hands; can't vouch for food but it's a cool setting, great place to eat after a hike in Topanga State Park. An establishment in Topanga for many years converted, I'm told, from an old school house. Full bar, nice patio, and on cold nights, gather around the fireplace inside with a hot toddy.
