Joshua Van DykMarch 1, 2016Joshua Van Dyk thinks the Burger is fantastic. I wish fries came with it but I ordered the truffle fries on the side....delicious! Great spot to eat while in Santa Monica.
Finally a place in Santa Monica that delivers a nice/modern space, good drinks, and a contemporary menu at a fair price. I'll be a regular here
Cady MillerJuly 22, 2016This is a GREAT people watching place. Small food menu. More of a "snack" place & good for drinks. Their chicken wings are the best I've ever had! U can tell their food is house made. Loved it! B back
Olga AlimirzoevaMay 15, 2019Smoked salmon eggs benedict with a glass (or bottle) of mimosa for brunch is simply the best start of your weekend!
Pamela LealJune 24, 2017Great happy hour drinks and appetz! Fancy, nice music, indoors but wide windows with daylight! A must in Santa Monica ❤️🌴👌🏼
Nick CJuly 12, 2015The fried chicken sandwich is extremely delicious. And the fries are seasoned to perfection. Plenty of craft beers on tap as well. Great place!
John CassilloMarch 21, 2015Waiters are very knowledgeable and accommodating. Happy hour prices are also worth a look ($5 for select cocktails, beers and wines).
Interesting cocktails (though the bartenders are super slow) and salads like the avocado citrus salad with capers and micro greens.
Jean-Yves MartineauMarch 13, 2016The brunch and mimosas were just great. This is one of my new go to places in Santa Monica!
Brad DavisJuly 10, 2015The veal ragu is amazing. I've had it four times so far and I keep craving it every time I go back!
Celine BraboJuly 23, 2016Fries, gnocchi, meatballs, and my bowl of grains was delicious. So glad to have that option!- Lina A.April 26, 2015Lovely food lovely staff. Tortellini duo, arrancini and aged rib eye steak just yummy :)
Julia ParkJuly 2, 2016If you want a quite, chill place to drink near DTSM during the weekend, this is the spot.
Hamilton Fortuna BautistaMarch 28, 2019So fun on Sundays. Drinks are good but truffle fries?? Lovely.
Jacqueline L.August 3, 2015Happy hour: 3PM-7PM daily. $5-$6 cocktails, $5 wine/beer of the day, $3-$8 appetizers.
Jason CampbellJuly 23, 2016Nothing here tastes bad, but there's nothing I'd want to eat again. Everything was fine but unremarkable.
