Little gem in the heart of Santa Monica with very affordable food and happy hour specials. I didn’t try any of the cocktails regrettably but it looks like an amazing selection. The service was super fast (on a slow overcast Sunday) and friendly. The shrimp...Read More

Ginger Margherita is The Jam. I love the candied ginger they top it with ♡ the music felt fun. The tacos were delicious. The lighting + vibe was really spot on.

Best cocktails you can get in a can. The actual cocktails they make and serve there could use some work but not terrible. Service was good and the people were nice. Price per person $10–20 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 1

Everything is just great before the DJ kicked in. The tacos, drinks, arcade games and pools are great. But as soon as the DJ started blasting LOUD house music, everything got ruined. The chill and fun vibe turned into a mess. It’s almost like the DJ...Read More

I went there late night when everything else was closed. I had a steak quesadilla, which was good. It was karaoke night on Wednesday so it was a little loud and rambunctious but hey it’s a bar. It was actually fun watching the locals and...Read More
