So what was Sinbad's?




Here's a photo I found from 1988. The building looks really old!

look at all the old photographs on the wall under the trellis. (that whole section blocks off the front of the building)

Ok, I just found this matchbook, so now I know it was a restaurant w/ cocktails.

So where was Sinbad's located? I've placed an arrow above the former Holiday Inn (the Holiday Inn is visible in the sepia newspaper photo at the top of the post)

I'm curious, has anyone here on NLA ever been to Sinbad's?

I a bit embarrassed to say, but I never made it out to Santa Monica Pier when I lived in L.A. (I guess I thought it was too touristy....or something )
