We opened our doors as a brunch only restaurant in January 2014, and the business has evolved tremendously since then, adding a beautiful dinner program, a full bar and natural wine shop, and growing our in-house bakery, all things to be celebrated.
IS EVERYTHING LOCAL AND ORGANIC?
We operate with a tiered ordering system; we always prioritize local and organic ingredients first, regionally available organic second, and conventional products only as a last resort. While not everything on our menu is organic, almost everything is - including our citrus, the milk and half and half we use in our coffee program, the flours and sugars we use in our bakery, and certainly the produce, fruit, and proteins we highlight in seasonal dishes on our menu.
We source our beef from Vera Earl Ranch in Sonoita, Arizona, our chicken is all Mary’s Organic from California, We source seafood through Santa Monica Seafood, whose mission is to provide the highest quality selection of seafood while recognizing the importance od conservation and maintenance a healthy environment. Santa Monica Seafood was the first seafood distributor to enter into a formal partnership with Monterey Bay Aquarium, apply their seafood watchlist rankings to inventory.

We do! For both Brunch and Dinner, our offerings are always inclusive. We don’t use fake meats or highly processed vegan cheeses, but we have a beautiful and innovative approach to working with vegetables, fruits, locally grown mushrooms, and grains to ensure there is a variety of satisfying food and drink available.
We have vegan options in the pastry case, on our brunch menu, and at night we have a plethora of small plates and usually 1-2 mains that are vegan or easily and thoughtfully modifiable to accommodate vegan guest

DO YOU SERVE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES?
The best bar in town…. Our bar program manager came to us from Bar Agricole in San Francisco, and was there when it won the 2019 James Beard Award for Outstanding Bar Program. Christopher focuses on meticulously sourcing exquisite small production spirits and creating spirit driven, beautiful and balanced cocktails.
IS YOUR WINE NATURAL OR ORGANIC?
Yes, 100%. Our wine program is specifically a celebration of producers working in harmony with the land, often without the use of machinery, and always without the use of chemicals, pesticides, and insecticides.
I often like to describe our wine program as ‘human scale’, as many of the winemakers we adore are hand harvesting and working small, multi generational plots of land. These families have an intrinsic and elemental connection to the land and the vines. They are farmers, real people whose livelihood is rooted in the pursuit of excellence and integrity.
Don’t worry, we don’t like flawed wines either… we take care to serve wines that are beautiful and refined examples of terroir and dedicated wine making. Biodynamic, demeter certified, minimal or no S02.

Yes, we LOVE well behaved dogs on our patio. Per health department regulations, only service dogs are allowed inside, but our patio is a perennial favorite for folks who don’t want to leave their best friends at home.
