About us

Located on Melrose Avenue, Koast is a new seafood spot from Kevin Meehan, Drew Langley, and the team behind Michelin-starred Kali. In the kitchen, Chef Michael Kerner creates food that’s thoughtful but never fussy — seasonal, sustainable, and full of vibrant coastal flavor. On the floor, General Manager Jessica Tripp brings warmth, hospitality, and attention to detail that ties the whole experience together.

Inspired by coastal fare and California’s laid-back rhythm, the menu features dishes that are both refined and relaxed — from fresh oysters and bright crudos to shareable plates and comforting seafood classics.

Whether it’s a casual weeknight dinner or something worth celebrating, Koast delivers food that’s elevated in craft and easy to enjoy.
