What Alex G likes about Summer House Santa Monica:
I came here to celebrate my best friend birthday for brunch. Drinks were fabulous. I got a green tea match latte which I enjoyed. I ordered the chicken sandwich with side salad. Loved it. My friends had a great experience and enjoyed the food. Our server Jay L. was excellent. He checked on us multiple times and was hilarious. He made our first time experience great. Thank you Jay for awesome customer service. Overall... View all feedback. What Bonnie Gibson doesn't like about Summer House Santa Monica:
we sat 45 minutes after our reservation and they were already from two items on the menu before 11:30a. our server was fantastic and the hostess was very nice, but the restaurant fell the ball on this. View all feedback.

Summer House has gone from mediocre to downright lousy. They never had good food. They have a great space. Beautiful decor. An underserved location. It's easy t...

The restaurant offers a lovely setting, especially in the atrium, with great service from attentive staff. While the food was good but not amazing, the herbed chicken paillard was a bit dry, and the mushroom pizza was very mushroomy. Desserts were a highlight, with good cookies and hot drinks. Despite some service issues reported by other diners, my experience was excellent, with helpful recommendations and efficient service. The ambiance was top-notch, and I recommend making a reservation in advance, especially on busy weekend nights. Overall, the restaurant is a recommended spot for groups of women or families seeking a cool vibe, good service, and decent food, though may not be ideal for cocktail or beer enthusiasts or serious foodies.

Such a pretty space- why are there TVs showing baseball? This isn’t a sports bar. For the price point, having tv’s on the wall is tacky.
