Papille Gustative

friends said their food was very tasty. I'm not a fan of spicy food, I took shaksuga and it was spicy for me, but my friends' food looked very appetizing. I really liked the atmosphere, beautiful decorations, the food looked great. 🤩

Deceptive business- clearly states on the menu that the egg shakshouka comes with sturgeon caviar, but instead received salmon roe (a much cheaper alternative/different taste). When confronted about it, the waiter laughed and said it must’ve been a mistake in the kitchen and that he would provide a discount as a result/free coffees (we appreciated the gesture). When the bill came, the woman checking us out said they only have one type of caviar (meaning this business has been intentionally misleading customers) and only offered a 10% discount. It’s one thing to make a honest mistake but hearing that this was an intentional choice, presumably to cut corners, left a bad taste in our mouth. I hope the restaurant updates their menu to align with the food and ingredients they’re actually serving.

Almost every Sunday, my friends and I enjoy brunch at this amazing place, and we have no desire to look elsewhere because we love it so much! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the dishes are delicious with high-quality ingredients. A special shoutout to the chef for the arugula salad that accompanies almost every meal—it's fantastic (personally for me)! The service is incredibly friendly, especially from Lana and Fabrizio, who always go beyond to meet our requests with care and kindness. We’ve been coming here regularly and plan to keep coming every Sunday! That truly speaks for itself!

Fantastic place! Incredibly delicious food with amazing ingredients, beautifully presented in generous portions. Literally the tastiest salmon I have ever tried. Wonderful overnight oats. Amazing avocado toast. Scrambled eggs were perfect. Literally every fruit and vegetable on the plate was perfect, fresh and beautiful and exactly ripe. Just a wonderful place. No one in our party could understand why they weren't more people here. We walked right in on a weekday morning, and both outdoor (both sunny and shady) and indoor seating were immediately available. What a find!

Food here actually leaves you feeling satisfied and just good! Very well balanced plates with farm fresh veggies, yummy cheeses, and interesting things like caper berries! The male servers are very kind! The wine is good, they have live music during the evenings. I brag about this place to everyone it’s a must go once a week type place at least and a very special place to work take a friend/ family member and go treat yourself to something actually good. Def a Main Street gem! Highly appreciate the whole entire feel of this place<3

I love this place. Is has great interior, which creates cool atmosphere. Really lovely crew. Beautiful and tasty food! Highly recommend!!!

Always delicious, amazingly fresh, organic farmers’ market ingredients. Perfectly prepared with skill and care. Go-to brunch place. Also lovely for dinner!

There is no better service available at any price point than this. The dish was served nicely and beyond our expectations. Danny, the server, advised a banana latte, which seemed dubious at first, but turned out to be the finest coffee I'd ever tasted (and I'm from Seattle). Wendy, the cook, came out and gave us a warm welcome. I would certainly recommend the cheese board because it was substantial and each cheese supplied was excellent (and I loved the other sides just as much as the cheese). Awesome!! Highly recommend..

I'm amending an earlier review. When a friend and I went a couple of weeks ago, the restaurant was very crowded and we experienced a service meltdown. We ultimately left the restaurant after waiting for our food for a long time, and I wrote a pretty scathing Yelp review. I also found the owner's email address and told him what my experience was. To my utter surprise, he took my experience to heart and had his staff read it AND made corrections and convinced me to come back and give the restaurant another try, My friend and I did and I can unreservedly say that the food is excellent. As my friend commented -- everyone says they have "farm-to-table" food but this place really does it. We both had a popular dish. . the smoked salmon Benedict and it was great. We also had an amazing herbal tea and dessert. The service was impeccable. I'm hopeful that the restaurant's service problems are resolved going forward. If the owner's responsiveness is any clue, I'm betting it will. And you won't be disappointed with the food.

The reason why for us this establishment deserves the one star is simply because of the fact that I got a stomach flu eating one of the dishes. How do I know? I've only eaten two things the day of, and the meal after this one was a shared plate with my family. And I don't see anyone else in my family with body aches, diarrhea and fevers. Secondly, it follows the general pattern of a stomach flu -- symptoms occurring 12-18 hours after the infection. But fine, how was the service? Well, to start, we asked the servers for a cup of ice for our son, and they couldn't even manage that. On two different occasions we asked, and both times they managed to forget. Does this level of service warrant a one star? Probably not, but it certainly doesn't help. At one point, we ended up getting a different server, who was great. Let's put the service at this point at 3 stars. But how was the food? This brunch may as well have been called the sourdough brunch, because that's all they served! Oh, you want French toast? Here's sourdough with maple syrup. Oh, you want an open-face pizza with Salami? Forget flatbread, here's sourdough with some melted cheese! I ordered what is basically a "duck egg" Benedict, but at this point I'm highly suspect that I actually had duck egg. That being said, could I wager you a guess to what type of bread it came on? But the audacity to charge any of these at or around $20 is truly wild -- this "duck egg" thing being almost $30. What exactly are we paying for here? Creativity?! All in all, this is honestly like a 2-3 star Yelp experience. At least brunch. And at the price point, it's a solid 2. But the fact that I got sick implies that there's something foundationally broken in the kitchen from a health and safety perspective. And for that, I'd say potential customers should steer clear, should they open themselves up to the potential of becoming ill. It literally happened to me!

It seems to be pretty slow for lunch during the week. I had a wonderful server. Food was something that I expected. It was delicious ! Seafood Lovers: you can trust me. This place is good. I didn't expect seafood being as fresh as it was.

Papillae Gustative is a great farm to table option in Ocean Park. The ingredients were all very fresh. I loved sitting on the terrace. The service was a little slow but I didn't mind as we were having a leisurely lunch.

Decided to eat here on our way out from LA as it was highly suggested by a close friend. Definitely recommend sitting outside on the parklet if it is a sunny day. Each dish had the most top quality ingredients, everything tasted extremely fresh. The eggs were soft scrambled and so fluffy. This is not your typical American brunch. They had their own specialty Matcha hot sauce, which was not spicy, but more of a chili oil taste. I was a bit disappointed they didn't have bacon, but my avocado toast made up for it!

Came here for brunch on Monday. Thought it was a typical American breakfast spot but it has more of a European influence so their menu was different than what I was expecting (don't expect bacon or sausage) We got a hot and iced Madagascar vanilla latte and a hot matcha latte. We also order the avocado egg toast, french toast, and brunch plate. Everything was tasty. Recommend getting reservations if you're going on a busy day, I went on a Monday holiday so it was busy and people who didn't have reservations had a wait. Service was very nice too!

I don't do 5 stars very often but if this meal didn't deserve 5 stars I don't know what would! Stopped here for Breakfast on Christmas morning. Wasn't sure what was going to be open but was delighted to find this spot with a great patio on the street! Started with some coffee and took my time getting the order ready which was fine because they were pretty busy and only had a couple people working the floor. I ordered a veggie French omelette, came with a side salad which I am not a fan of normally. At most restaurants the side salad, especially for breakfast is a filler on the plate to take up room...so I ordered some potatoes. Now, this was by far the best side salad I have ever had with a breakfast! The lettuce was fresh, loaded with flavor (which for lettuce is the difference from mass production and small real farm stuff). The dressing on it was light but super tasty! The omelette was fantastic as well, the potatoes very well done...another big hit, the toast! Came with pesto slathered on it! Now my first thought was why the H#ll did you put pesto on my toast! First bite of it, damn this is now a thing for me, Pesto on toast! Everything about this meal was way more than I was expecting and just made my Christmas morning! I will definitely come here again and bring a friend with me! Thank you to the staff and Merry Christmas! KT

Made a Yelp reservation here for a table, but once I showed up it was sort of like I had never made a reservation and had to wait in a line. Was finally seated and pleased to see the European-inspired brunch menu. I had the smoked salmon benedict which came with spinach, a great crusty bread and trout roe sprinkled on top.

I choose this restaurant based on photos and reviews, I knew it was going to be good but I didn't expect it to be great , definitely pleasantly surprised and I can't wait to try more dishes,Dinner next visit

The space was beautiful, the food was great and the staff were excellent! Went in for brunch with 3yr old and they went out of their way to make us feel special! The Best Brunch dish and Rye Open faced sandwiches were delicious!

My husband and I came for Friday jazz and sat on the patio. We were planning to just get a charcuterie board and lattes (dry January) but decided to try the pasta. Our server, I think his name was Jon, was the nicest and most welcoming guy. He was so bubbly and warm, we really enjoyed talking to him. The ambiance was lovely (aside from the passing cars) and the jazz made for a great setting. The food, however, was really bland and oily. We got the olio pasta and the risotto, a side of bread and butter, and the butternut squash soup. One obviously expects oil with an olio pasta, but it was drenched in oil and had no other perceivable taste aside from that. Same goes for the risotto, which was bathed in some kind of yolk-like sauce (this is vegan, so I'm unsure what it was) and truly tasted like nothing. We asked for salt and pepper and doused both dishes. The soup was decent, though it had an overwhelming cinnamon taste. The bread was great, however it was served without butter or oil as indicated on the menu and it took at least 15 minutes for that to be brought to us after we requested it. If I had it to do again, I'd order just the charcuterie board. A neighboring table got that and it looked good. The lattes we ordered were tasty, and I enjoyed the range of options available (Hawaiian lavender!). Overall a cute spot and with friendly, albeit slow, service. I see a lot of reviews praising the brunch so perhaps that is the better menu to choose from. I did love the jazz and it's a cute spot.

Was there on Sunday. First time going to Papille Gustative, and it's actually pretty good. They have large verity of food selection. Basically anything you'd like and it's not expensive for this area. The one thing I like about this place is their customer service. So friendly and kind. Would definitely come back. Thanks

The items on the menu were unusual, The food was tasty, well presented and the service was good.

Went here for dinner last week and would not recommend. I made a reservation in the afternoon but they must have printed out their list of reservations for the night earlier that day, since I was not on it. The hostess seemed annoyed by this. I don't know why they are using a printed out copy of their reservation list in 2023... I felt like they forgot about us because we sat there for half an hour before they even asked us for a drink order. Another half hour passed before we got our appetizers and wine. I was so hungry when we got there, so I was not happy about waiting until almost 9 PM for our pasta (we arrived and were seated at 7:30). The peach burrata salad was good, and so was the truffle pasta. I ordered a seafood pasta that was too seafood-y (and I love seafood) but maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. They have a great wine list. I didn't know we were going to be there for live jazz but that was a fun, nice surprise.

Came in with a friend for the DinelA lunch on a Sun @ 11:45 am.-12pm Had to wait a while (at least 10 min) to get seated bc the hostess was no where in sight. Place is short-handed. Went inside to ask, and was told to see the woman up front. When she finally arrived from inside the restaurant, I said, "Finally!" Sat outside at a 2-people table. She gave me the regular menu. I asked for the DineLA menu. We ordered off the DineaLA menu - pear salad, salmon salad (salmon was delicious and beautifully presented) and panna cotta for $35. Server brought the bill before the dessert. We had to remind him that we still had the panna cotta for dessert. Server came back, said they ran out of panna cotta and offered the chocolate substitutes. Out at 1:20? See pics. They needed more waitstaff. Free parking available with limited spaces in the adjacent lot or street parking.

food was okay.... service was absolutely terrible. prepare for a complete lack of service pretty much. we came for dineLA, even booked the reservation through the dineLA website where the restaurant's set menu is clearly listed. apparently no one at the restaurant was aware that they even had a dineLA menu. we were left to wait for them to call a manager in the back about it before they finally decided to honor what was listed online. this was pretty much the only interaction we had with any server. throughout our entire dining experience, not once were we addressed by a server, checked in on, or even acknowledged. we had to get the attention of the hostess to even order food, get utensils, and get the bill. not a single server came to our table throughout the entire meal, despite checking in on tables around us. we waited nearly 45 min after ordering before getting our peach and burrata salad. salmon was decent. scallops on the linguine were wildly overcooked. pana cotta was literally yogurt?? would absolutely not recommend. save your money and time and go elsewhere

A nice spot for weekend brunch, they have some interesting and unique food and drink combos that I haven't seen elsewhere (like avo toast with uni, or the chocolate banana latte). I had the shakshuka which was very tasty. Lavender latte didn't have a very strong lavender flavor.

I have a lot of patience but our experience there was terrible. Our wine was fantastic, that was the redeemable quality of the restaurant. We ordered the salmon and a pasta dish along with two appetizers. The olives and fish, and the dates. The wine came out in a timely manner. The food took forever. The dates and prosciutto were good but the blue cheese they put in them aggressively attacked the palate. The olives took an hour to get out to us. They were hardly warm and the anchovies were undressed. It just felt like a mess rather than a night out we just paid for our wine and left.

Really cute, instant classic, Santa Monica spot. Just drips with West L.A. asthetics, but still with quite reasonable prices, for brunch at least. The ambiance was charming, but the food was straight up beautiful, and the taste matched. Everything we ordered was delicious, even the olive laden shakshuka. I both dont usually like olives and am picky about shakshuka, but it passed the test. The breads were on point, tons of good fruit with the waffle, and the asparagus benedict was amazing itself, and accompanied by a surprisingly delicious salad. Definitely will be back!

We've been here for brunch and dinner and both were great. The brunch is by far my favourite local spot. The food is fresh, organic and super tasty thanks to the quality ingredients, well balanced. We just had early dinner with our 2 year old, and they do live jazz nights so you get a really awesome jazz band playing in the background while you eat. The staff are very friendly and accommodating for kids. So glad we have this as a local spot.

Food 10 Service 10 Ambiance 10 Papille Gustative transported me to the small artisan restaurants/coffee houses in the arts district of Mexico City. The food is fresh, tasty and presented beautifully. The service is excellent!!

Cute restaurant with a great menu! We tried the egg & avocado toast topped with uni..super tasty and decadent! I love that the dish was served with a light salad. Ordering food takes place online - you can scan the menu, place the order as well as pay. The food is delivered to your table..pretty contactless. Will come back!

Loving this spot! Came here for the first time with a couple of friends for Saturday brunch (quite a popular spot). Parking is either on the street or there is a lot next door (bank parking) that they own. I ended up getting: *DUCK PROSCIUTTO BENEDICT LILI'S FARM PASTURE RAISED DUCK EGGS, SMOKING GOOSE DUCK PROSCIUTTO, JYAN ISAAC BREAD SEEDED COUNTRY LOAF, MUNAK RANCH TOMATOES, STRACCIATELLA CHEESE, BÉARNAISE SAUCE, MARKET GREENS ($25.75) ***The meal was definitely filling and the flavors were spot on! I really enjoyed that the duck prosciutto, it wasn't too salty or fatty. The fixings they added (tomatoes, cheese olives etc) were a nice touch; however, it was just a little difficult to cut into the bread because of the crust (still delish!). *Hawaiian Lavender Latte $6.25: A little pricey, but the lavender was subtle (not overpowering). Overall atmosphere was good, staff was really nice and attentive. The only downfall, since there is a vegetable garden outside there was this massive June bug-like bug flying around constantly. P.S. You order and pay for your food on their website (easy peasy!)

We came on a Friday night. It was happening. The were the only restaurant with some live jazz. We were on the waitlist and just walked around. Then we sat down, enjoyed our meal. I got a pasta dish and oh my. I didn't not think that the pasta I ate could have been so delicious. I mean compare my pasta I make to this and I realize why I should come here instead. Fantastic night and fantastic experience.

My go-to gastronomical heaven! I love love love Papille. I am never tired of the unique dishes they serve and amazing lattes. I bring all the guests from out of town to Papille and all of them are always floored with their brunch!

great food . great service . John was our waiter . I had the salad nicoise . Want to return for the jazz music soon

I ordered 5 minutes before my friend did. His entree arrived and he asked for catchup. None available! He asked for hot sauce, we don't carry that. He asked for the soup special. We are out of it. I asked for my entree 6 times. It never came so I walked out. Will never go there again.

After waiting for 30 minutes from ordering our food with no waitress in sight to even check on us we just decided to leave. The music was lovely but not enough to keep us.

I made a group reservation more than a week advance for a group of 12. They confirmed and said they would call me 24 hrs before the reservation date. They never did and when I called 24 hrs before the reservation date, they said there is a surcharge of $20/person and that the originally reserved patio space wasn't available. What a way to ruin my birthday reservation last minute. This is unprofessional and I recommend always double checking as they don't have the decency to keep track of how to run the restaurant with courtesy and service.

Ah, Papille Gustative; a great example of why the rest of the country makes fun of the LA food scene. TL;DR: thoroughly grammable food, but an otherwise absurd experience. The food at Papille Gustative is good. It's not great, but it is fine enough and beautifully presented. This is why Yelp is replete with enticing photos of their dishes. Generally, it all lacks seasoning. But the ingredients are very fresh. We shared 3 kinds of their Scandinavian rye breads topped with smoked salmon, anchovies, and uni. All absolutely palatable, none memorable. The dirty potatoes lacked flavor but were cooked extremely well, achieving a silky texture. My GF waffle was nice; it tasted and felt gluten free, but it was a serviceable vehicle for a mountain of fresh "market" fruits (which should not be mistaken for seasonal, as blueberries and raspberries are hardly winter fruits, but anyway this is LA, so what does seasonal even mean). The worst order was probably my friend's, consisting of a cold vegan quinoa bowl that she described as "too much farm, not enough table," and barely ate half. All of this was mostly unremarkable and would barely have merited a short review, but what was really worth sharing was our hilarious service experience. At Papille Gustative, the constantly circling waiters are not allowed to take orders. They will bring you a paper menu, and then you can order at the counter inside, or you can scan a QR code and order through their website. The online ordering menu and the paper menu are not identical (and nor are either the same as the menu they have posted on their website); each has items the other does not. So, if you chose something from the paper menu, you might go to order it online only to discover it's not there. You might think that the online ordering platform would trump everything else; 'get with technology, you elder millennial!' you might say. But what if, dear Yelper, you wanted to order something LA-basic like a chai latte, only to find such thing unlisted on the online ordering platform? What if you needed this hit of caffeine before you were awake enough to navigate the disorganized online ordering menu? What if you mistakenly thought, it's only one drink, surely the waiter can take that order? Well, you'd be told by said waiter that you have to order it inside, only to walk 10 steps inside and meet that very same waiter on the other side of the counter, now ready to take your same order. As if directly out of a comedy of errors. It's all just too complex by half. And lest you think me unreasonably critical, this around-and-around meant that my friends and I who were reuniting after 2 years apart had to spend the first half hour of our hang awkwardly trying to catch up while puzzling over not only what but how to order. In sum, if you're looking for a spot to go alone and get food that you can post to IG to make all your friends jealous of your pretty life regardless of the cost to your sanity, run to Papille Gustative. For everyone else, just walk on by.

This is my favorite breakfast restaurant in all LA area!!! Branch plate is amazing!!!! Food, friendly stuff, and atmosphere makes this place 10/10 for me!!! Thank you guys!!! Me and my wife in love with your place!

My fiancé and I had such an amazing experience here. They had a jazz night and musicians were great, food was amazing - overall a beautiful experience and we will be coming back again!

I will leave a review for the owners in the hope that they will see how they might improve their business. I booked a reservation and then went on Yelp to confirm I had not made a mistake. Normally, I discount low reviews based on complaints about service because very often they reflect the narcissim of the reviewer more than reality. However, in this case, there are so many very specific complaints about service. In addition the dinner menu seems very limited and obvious to the extent that I did not see any reason to dine here in the evening. I ended up cancelling my reservation. A couple of recommendations. First, when you see this many complaints about service, do something! Second, your dinner menu reads like you are not even trying. If you want to focus on bruch, so be it.

I try to get here whenever I visit the area. Lovely outdoor garden setting, friendly and competent staff and every dish is almost too pretty to eat! So far I've tried the yogurt parfait, the tuna salad and the goat cheese tartine - all fantastic!

We ordered the fish board, seared scallops salad, and scallop Crudo. Everything was so exquisite -- even down to the arugula. Our server John was incredible. He was attentive, helpful, and friendly. My date and I could not have asked for a better server. Everyone working at the restaurant was also very friendly . The overall feel of the restaurant was beautiful, I loved the decor and how the tables were set up. I am so happy we found this place and I will definitely be going again!

Yummy French Toast and pretty tasty whole milk latte! Wonder how I never knew about this local place. I'll be back!

My husband made a Mothers Day reservation, they had A set menu with first course and second course choices. We had a nice seat outside but the service was non-existent. We ordered and the adult meals came out. The my two oldest kids ordered the salmon and avocado breakfast and third ordered toast with jam. One kids meal shows up and The salmon was smoked. No where did it say the kids salmon was smoked. Then they pan fried the smoked salmon and brought it back. . The other two ate a bunch of food off our plates because they were so hungry. Finally two kids meals came out after everyone was done and after we asked for their food. And the meals were still wrong. She said she would give us a discount ($15 off) however there was no discount on the bill. The adult food was great, kids meals were awful and the service was non-existent.

Papille Gustative is French, translates Taste Bud! This café located on Main St and Pacific in Santa Monica. Menu offers a limited variety from small to larger portions of beautifully plated foods with a French flair. Street meter parking is limited, just like the restaurant's indoor and outdoor seating, but is non threatening to diners, small dog friendly. Yesterday, on a spontaneous whim, I decided to visit this café with my furbabe Fendi. I chose to sit outside the outdoor shaded patio. The outdoor patio was surrounded by blossoming trees, quite lovely. Ordering and paying from the scanned menu is done online, but you can also go inside the restaurant, order and pay with cash, just as I did...CASH RULES! All staff wore face mask, were nice and helpful. The seating area were cleared and kept clean. Ordered a savory: salmon roe rye Tartine and a sweet: berries, honey and almond butter Tartine. Each were presented picture perfect beautifully stimulated my Taste Buds! After eating the salmon Tartine, I was full and had to box the sweet Tartine TOGO. Although this café restaurant was participating in DineLA, I wasn't not dazzled by that offering. Thanks to Yelp friend Peter I for his post of a yummy Tartine. If you're in the area, Papille Gustative this is a casual cool destination worthy of your taste buds ...Recommend!

Dined here today for brunch. The food was really delicious and beautifully plated. I wish I could give more stars for that alone. However, the restaurant's customer service leaves much to be desired. Our waiter, John, was very friendly, and as accommodating as he could be while obviously attempting to follow policies that were, in my opinion, unreasonable. Not his fault. This review is for ownership/management. For example, we ordered Elderberry wine spritzers that were described to contain mint. They arrived, there was no mint present. When we asked about that, they said they ran out. (Should we have to ask?) They also tasted so super sweet that my friend and I couldn't enjoy them. So we asked for them to be replaced with something else... but we were expected to still pay for them. Didn't love that. We also didn't love: Being declined when asking for hollandaise on the side instead of on top (the menu didn't seem to have a "no modifications" policy stated) Being told that a protein added to a Bowl couldn't be placed on top of said Bowl ("you can add it but it will be served on the side" OKAY...) Being charged for iced tea refills without any mention of it until the bill came Being told that the soup would be "fine" in a cardboard to-go box (I'm not here to get into a scientific or culinary debate on the "state" of soup, but last I checked it was a liquid, and I was under the impression that folding cardboard to-go boxes cannot be expected to adequately contain liquids.) Being ignored by the chef when he clearly came out to greet neighboring tables to ask how their meals were (yep, this was after we acted a little miffed about the above policies) Being told there was no manager present to speak to. Would I come back? Maybe, but I see other reviewers who had similar experiences here more than once, so I'm very hesitant. Good food can only go so far. And please check my other Yelp reviews, I almost never write negative reviews, I'm not one of "those people", but I felt compelled to after today's experience.

We went for dinner last night and it was great. Our servers were both so friendly and attentive. We shared three items and they timed them nicely for us. First up, the beet salad. Light and fresh and tasty. Next was the fish charcuterie board. It had a lot of variety including roe, uni, sardines, mackerel, salmon, etc., and came with delicious seeded rye bread. Everything was tasty and unusual. Finally, we shared the squid ink tagliatelle with scallops in a cream sauce. It was rich and perfect to share. We sat inside but could hear the musician from outside who had a beautiful voice. I had a nice glass of white wine and it was a perfect dinner for two and was only $100 (before tip). They weren't busy so I hope more people try their dinner service.

The food is excellent. Free coffee refills for black coffee only, not for Americano! So if you are like me that likes a few cups in the AM order black coffee. The food is excellent as the ingredients are fresh. I had the smoked salmon Benedict and my wife had the Avocado toast with scrambled eggs. We had the banana bread, to our surprise it came with fresh fruit. I highly recommend this establishment, you can order and pay through their website and they just bring out the order to your table. The music is nice and relaxing. There is patio and interior seating.

The best See you tomorrow . Had the best filet mignon and risotto. Music tomorrow. See ya Fabrizio! .

We came here on a Friday afternoon around 1-2 pm for a bite and drinks. They have a patio space outside enclosed with plants, and multiple little tables. We sat and ordered using the link on the table. I got the vegetable kimchi bowl. Very nice mix of veggies in a good portion size. We enjoyed having drinks outside out of the sun, though that required us pushing the table a bit. Not all the patio has shade, so all tables in it were occupied. Quick service and they had a vegan wine

I am from Florida and was so excited to find a farm to table locally in Santa Monica, one block from my uncles house! The service was great, we were always attended to even on a quiet Friday morning. The food was delicious! I WISH I could find a brunch plate like this in Florida, no such luck thus far. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a delicious, filling, sustainable meal! The goat cheese and bread were exceptionally delicious!

The brunch was fine. I to-go ordered their banana bread loaf. Paid $38 for a loaf and got MOLDY banana bread!!! On top of mold, there was no flavor and the edges of the loaf was so hard Cmon do better! Don't charge $38 and give customers old banana bread!!

Had dinner Fri night. Very few tables had people, wonderful jazz trio, outside table, good food, $$$ drinks, many staff. Charming waiter until we got our food, then he farted around the bar and we really had little contact with us (he abandoned us). Had to ask the hostess for dessert menu. Had to make another run into the bar to ask the hostess for the check. We won't be going back for dinner because of that waiter.

One of the most luxurious brunches I've ever experienced. I went ALL OUT and everything was absolutely divine. This place has no waiters and you order everything on your phone (18% gratuity automatic) I love when restaurants do that because we got our food/drinks in 30 minutes! You HAVE to get the egg & avocado toast (add uni & caviar if you are feeling adventurous) and the ricotta berry toast

Great staff and mind blowing menu! Great outdoor seating area. Everything was delicious and the presentation was beautiful! Loved it!!!

Pros: Digital Menu where you can view and order items from the menu at your convenience; Heat lamps and nice fresh garden terrace seating area; Fresh whole foods that are farm to table. Cons: Service Gratuity automatically included in bill when you pay upfront--meaning servers don't work very hard to keep up with what you need throughout your dining experience. Not once did he come back to refill our water glasses. I ordered the duck benedict and my friend ordered the signature french toast, both of which did not include proper cutting knives. After waiting some time to spot my server, I had to get up and walk over to where he was standing behind the counter aimlessly staring off into space to request the utensils. Overall not a bad place to try out if you have not been. But do head the cons.
