Reviews for Local Kitchen & Wine Bar in Santa Monica, CA
The service and covered patio were definitely the best part - so accommodating. We were originally seated inside and it was so... loud, and they quickly set us up at a table on the covered patio outside instead. The food was good, but the price points werereally high. Getting a little tired of $17 cocktails in LA! Read more
My lunch was delicious. Pasta cooked properly. Bolognese was great. We had the mousse for dessert. Yum! The waiter was... friendly and professional. I would go there again Read more
My specific review is about the Margherita Pizza at Local Kitchen & Wine Bar. The pizza was almost neopolitan, but with a a... different cheese layer. The crust was pretty delicious because it was a fine balance of fluffy and form. Crust 5/5 The saucewas thin layer. The basil was not really present because it was cut into pieces and when you cut herbs it reduces the fragrance.The cheese was was tasty. Cheese 3/5 I expected more based on the price, prior reviews, and quality of restaurant. Read more
Solid restaurant for a night out with some coworkers. Diverse menu with lots of options and a strong wine and cocktail program.... Their appetizers were my favorite part of the meal while the pizzas were a bit underwhelming Read more
Great wine bar. Good food very friendly service
Had a really nice dinner here last week. Tried two delicious appetizers: broccolini, which was just a bit spicy; and baby... artichoke hearts, sitting on parmesan shavings (photo), which melted in my mouth. We split a perfectly baked, seasonal pizzawith excellent flavor combinations, and finished with the sea salt caramel pudding. Divine. Add in an attentive waiter with adroll sense of humor, Eric, and the result is a terrific meal. Looking forward to eating Local again soon. Read more
