Wally's Santa Monica

"Celebrated a loved one's birthday here with friends! The food is on the pricey side - but the 5-star experience makes it justified. Food, ambiance, and service were top notch. The restaurant is unique and flooded with wine bottles all over the walls. What a fantastic collection. Highly recommend the spicy salami pizza and the truffle brie! I would love to come back and experience the rest of the menu"

"Amazing atmosphere with tall wine walls. Heard a lot of people take their dates here. Pasta was amazing with its complex sauce. Efficient good service. Staff. Walking distance from Bungalow"

"Nice restaurant close to Santa Monica pier. Beautiful interior. Wide selection of wines and champagne. It’s like sitting in a wine cellar. Great atmosphere. Perfect for occasions and celebrations. There’s live performances on Monday night. Food is decent. Truffle Baked Brie is my favorite. Entrees are mid. You may skip the surf and turf, not the best I’ve had."

"While not exactly the same as the BH location, SM is still as beautiful and true to the Wally's brand: upscale atmosphere, great wine, cheese and charcuterie, and always a fantastic food omage to the truffle. Highly recommend the truffle lentil dish, it's creamy and satisfying with a rich truffle finish. The tartare has a very deep flavor profile, and the octopus is very multilayered. The blueberry and lemon tart for dessert is excellent. Now our personal taste is an aperitif and a partiality for sweeter wines and ports, of which they have a decent selection. Deeply knowledgeable staff, and the ambiance is a very seen and be seen vibe, but SM has a slightly more casual elegance to it's attractive clientele."
