Do you enjoy paying over a hundred bucks for a modest lunch of salad, an onion soup served in the equivalent of a demitasse cup, an ice tea and a coffee? Then dine here. They lean heavily on the “farm to table” schtick. The bill: $120, tip included whether you want to or not. Nothing exceptional to eat, pretty much what you would find anywhere.

They seemed understaffed, only one girl who seemed to be host, server, and bartender and one guy clearing tables. Chicken and potatoes were great, pasta was ok, do not order the espresso martini. Everything expensive for what it is. There are better places on Montana.
The food was so fresh and came out very quickly. They’ve curated such a nice French Bistro by the beach feeling here through the local food, music, and decoration! Everything was well seasoned and the salmon was so crispy. My favorite was the fried chicken Sandwhich, great restaurant.
Absolutely loved our experience here! Everything we ordered was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. We started with the Fried Green Tomato, which was such a unique and delicious appetizer. The flavors and texture were amazing and it was definitely something different from the usual appetizers.
The Carbonara Pasta was creamy, rich, and perfectly seasoned. You could really taste the quality of the ingredients, and it was one of my favorite dishes of the meal.
And the Terratorry Burger was absolutely amazing! The burger was juicy and flavorful, the cheese was perfectly melted, and the fresh toppings combined with the crispy onions made every bite so good.
On top of the food the atmosphere was great and the whole experience felt welcoming and enjoyable. You can tell that a lot of care and attention goes into both the food and the service.
Definitely a place I would recommend and come back to again. 😍Everything we tried was delicious! 10/10 experience! 👌
3 stars.
I really liked the farm-to-table concept going in, but overall the experience fell a bit short for me. The portion sizes are quite small across the board. We got the signature breakfast and the burger, and since everything is à la carte, I also decided to order a salad. I was pretty disappointed when it came out, it was tiny for $14.
The service was also very slow on the day we went. Our server did apologize and mentioned they were short-staffed due to people calling out, which was a nice gesture, but it still didn't change the fact that the long wait impacted our meal experience. As for the food itself, I thought it was just okay, it wasn't anything special or memorable.
On the plus side, street parking was super easy when we went, which is always a relief in Santa Monica.
It's a neat concept, but between the high prices for small portions and the underwhelming flavor, I don't know that I'd rush back.
