• Italian • Santa Monica
Booked 9 times today
Growing up in Italy, my family cooked at home and had the most extraordinary experiences with ingredients grown in our backyard, paired with the wines my chef/restaurateur stepfather would bring back from regions throughout Italy. I fell in love with food as a child watching my stepfather, once nominated a top chef in Italy, work in restaurant kitchens and floors. Moving to California in 1991 and subsequently to Santa Monica and experiencing the Farmers Market inspired me to start Orto - Italian for “vegetable garden” - where I meld local ingredients and organic herbs grown here at the restaurant to create traditional Italian recipes. At our bar you’ll find a cocktail list created from fresh herbs and premium spirits, and our wine list focuses on sustainable and organic producers.

    Yet again, Tar and Roses does not disappoint. From the service to the food to the mock tails everything was wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. We were celebrating my daughters 20th birthday and they brought us delicious desserts. I think I would be happy if I could eat here every night, thank you Tar and Roses for another wonderful evening

    Excellent seafood and great service. Ambience is nice, but as it is across the street from Santa Monica Pier, its vibe is a bit boisterous, but elegant enough experience to justify the visit. For good fresh seafood near the Pacific, the price was reasonable, but be prepared to pay what the food and service are worth. This is NOT fast casual, thank goodness. I had a great time and a great meal. You won’t be disappointed.

    This is an excellent option to the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Since some of my family members are traveling this year, a nice dinner without worrying all the preparation works and the left over from the 14 pound turkey is a great relief for us. Thanks, Jerome
