Birdie G’s is Santa Monica’s most destination-worthy restaurant—and believe me, I’ve tried every viable candidate twice. Named for head chef Jeremy Fox’s daughter and grandmother, Birdie G’s serves seasonally inspired California comfort food with Jewish and Eastern European flourishes out of a large, industrial space at art gallery hotspot Bergamot Station. A matzo ball soup using carrot miso adds an umami twist on a Jewish classic, and there’s a must-order lamb “a la Saless,” which comes to the table on a thin bed of impossibly crispy rice flavored with dill and other Persian spices.

Santa MonicaJeremy Fox’s indefinable concept highlights Eastern European cuisine through a California lens, with some midwestern and Southern influences as an homage to where he grew up, which yields some totally unique dishes. We’re not sure where the idea to combine Southern-style sage brown butter kugel with koji-marinated flatiron steak and date bundt cake came from, but we’re happy it’s here. Fox is also a father and places unparalleled emphasis on the kids menu, as in the potato-crusted chicken tenders with honey mustard, and the matzo pizza margherita.

This American comfort food spot in Santa Monica has an industrial space that looks like something you’d find in the Arts District, not the Westside. With a massive dining room and a wide-ranging menu filled with everything from whole roasted chicken to noodle kugel to cavatelli, it’s an ideal spot for families who can never agree on what they’re in the mood for. There’s even a separate kids menu filled with things like potato-crusted chicken fingers, which is ideal since every single one of your cousins announced they were pregnant last year.

A modern supper club in Santa Monica, Birdie G does not only have great options for adults but also for kids.

Lastly, ten Santa Monica restaurants also received a Michelin Plate award: Birdie G’s, Cassia, Chinois on Main, Citrin, Elephante, Fia, The Lobster, Lunetta, Michael’s, and Milo + Olive were honored.

Jeremy Fox opened Birdie G’s in Santa Monica’s Bergamot Station in 2019, in partnership with Josh Loeb and Zoe Nathan, owners of the Rustic Canyon Family restaurant group; he’d been a chef and partner at the company’s namesake restaurant for six years. His first menus at Birdie G’s — zigging and zagging through twists on Eastern European Jewish foods, Italian-leaning dishes, odes to West Coast seafood and desserts that winked at a 1950s sort of nostalgia — lobbed a whole lot at diners. Much of it was smart and gratifying, but in its rush to convey his culinary autobiography the cooking could sometimes have a scattered, fevered quality to it.

On the kid's menu, you can find “sloppy Jeremy,” thick toast paved with beef-strawberry Bolognese; a colorful blend of farmers market greens called the Healthy Yucky Green Salad; and a pizza Margherita made on matzo with Bianco DiNapoli tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil.
