Ozumo Breaks Up with Santa Monica Place for Ocean Ave

On the subject of Santa Monica Place, another restaurant is down for the count, sort of. This is actually a change of turf, not a shutter, but Ozumo, the modern Japanese eatery within the mall, will relocate down the block on Ocean in about three and a half months. Ozumo is moving into that longtime empty courtyard space next door to The Ivy at 1541-1551 Ocean Avenue. Back in the day Abode inhabited part of this ground. [EaterWire]
