Tucked away within Santa Monica’s historic Bergamot Station, Birdie G’s is helmed by award-winning chef Jeremy Fox (also the chef/owner at Rustic Canyon and Tallula’s) and Chef de Cuisine Matthew Schaler. As a member of the Rustic Canyon Family, a collection of celebrated, neighborhood dining destinations, Birdie G’s offers a comforting, seasonal menu pulls influences from various regions across the United States and Eastern Europe. Everything from the food to the cocktails to the wine list has a story and pays homage to loved ones (friends, family, farmers!) who inspire the team. We make nearly everything in house, and always with great, local ingredients.
