Ugo Opening A Trattoria In Downtown Santa Monica

The space at 1237 3rd St. Promenade in Santa Monica has seen a number of eateries come and go.  Years ago it was a Greek restaurant, then a BurgerIM, and most recently, a hot chicken place was slated to move in.  But apparenty that fell through…  Italian specialists Ugo Cafe has long had a relationship with Downtown Santa Monica.  Originally, they had a shop in Santa Monica Place.  Then they moved to 1400 Third Street Promenade.  And now, they are opening a new location at 1237 3rd St.  As you can see, the sign displays the new business as Ugo An Italian Trattoria.  A spokesperson assured me that this will be their second location in Santa Monica (and third in total), and whereas their current Promenade location is more of a “grab and go” concept, the new location will be more of a “fancy” sit-down restaurant.

A big “coming soon” banner has recently gone up on the front of the former BurgerIM space at 1237 3rd St. Promenade in Santa Monica.  And pasted to the front of that is a smaller banner announcing something called Chick It Out and promising hot chicken.  Apparently this has been in the works for a while now, and What Now Los Angeles has a lot more on this story which you can read here.

Burgerim Quits Beverly Hills

You know I’ve been tracking the massive expansion of the Israeli chain obsessed with lilliputian burgers, Burgerim.  But could there be a bump in the road to SoCal domination?  As a reader pointed out (Thanks Tony!) the new-ish Burgerim at 250 S Beverly Dr. in Beverly Hills has already called it quits after about a year.  Not sure what happened, but the reader suspects competition from Burger Lounge, which is directly across the street, could have had something to do with it.

The Culver City mercurial food scene continues its rocky ride…  There’s a big for lease sign in the window of what used to be Signature Burger at 3835 Main St. in Downtown Culver City.  Could it be due to the new Burgerim about to open just a few doors down?   I’ll keep watching to see what may take its place.

A sad day for old school Santa Monica aficionados…  Recently, after 30 years, Downtown Santa Monica staple Greek Cuisine Stop’n Café closed its iconic location at 1237 3rd Street Promenade.  A gracious note posted on the front door offers gratitude to the community and explains that they have, “decided to pass on this beautiful location to the next generation of entrepreneurs.”  And who might that entrepreneur be?  An ABC application on the front of the space reveals that it is none other than a familiar purveyor of diminutive burgers that is bent on world domination…  Burgerim.

Back in October of last year, I told you about the imminent arrival of Burgerim to the space at 4020C Lincoln Blvd. in Marina Del Rey.  They recently have thrown open their doors for business.  On the menu?  Their proprietary brand of customized 2.8 oz. mini burgers, with a choice of “3 buns, 6 sauces, 11 patties, and 9 unconventional toppings”, that are sold in quantities.  The opening of this branch is one more step in the ambitious Israeli chain’s inexorable march toward world domination.

Step aside Tocaya Organica, another restaurant chain is seriously vying for world domination.  I recently came across paper covering the long vacant space at 4020C Lincoln Blvd. in Marina Del Rey announcing that a branch of Burgerim will be moving in.   Looking to build thousands of outlets across the globe, you can expect to see a great deal more of this ambitious Israeli chain.  Check out this link on their website and marvel at the stunning list of locations that are “coming soon”.  To my count, an astonishing 42 stores will be opening in California, and just about as many in both Texas and Florida as well!  Apparently, Burgerim‘s concept is about building customized 2.8 oz. burgers utilizing a choice of “3 buns, 6 sauces, 11 patties, and 9 unconventional toppings”.  The diminutive burgers are sold in quantities of uno, duo, trio, or 16 party box, and consuming more than one is encouraged.
