Times Description

Rustic Canyon seems to have struck a nerve with Santa Monica restaurant goers. It's not trendy. No big-name designer or flotilla of votive lights is involved. The bar doesn't make pretty tinted cocktails or serve $600 bottles of tequila. No paparazzi are hanging round the door.

Chef Evan Funke and creative pastry chef Zoe Nathan work together to bring the freshest possible options to the table.
