Rustic Canyon

Rustic Canyon is a celebrated dining destination in Santa Monica offering hyper-seasonal, market-driven Californian cuisine. Led by thoughtful culinary craft and strong relationships with local farmers, the menu changes regularly with creative small and large plates designed for sharing. The stylish yet welcoming atmosphere makes it a favorite spot for evening meals, special occasions, and exceptional wine pairings.

History

Opened in 2006 by Josh Loeb, Rustic Canyon was born from a series of successful dinner parties hosted by Loeb and his friends, which inspired the creation of a restaurant that feels like an extended family dinner.
