The 20 Best Restaurants In Santa Monica - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Birdie G’s, an airy, industrial-looking restaurant in Bergamot Station, is what you might call a fancy person’s idea of a comfort food restaurant. The chef of Rustic Canyon is behind the menu, so you know there's a farmers market produce bent. But you can also expect a Midwestern, vaguely Eastern European feel to many dishes. We love the seasonal pickle plate with a dollop of onion dip in the center, and the “everything” marinated broccoli with miso banga cauda. They also do amazing steak frites for the crowd valeting their Teslas outside. Just don’t leave without a slice of the rose petal pie—a jiggly, strawberry Jell-O concoction that looks like a stained glass window in dessert form." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, cathy park
