For the longest time we have loved Esters - it is our favorite local spot to meet friends and grab a drink. Esters is a beautifully decorated wine bar and eatery in the heart of Santa Monica. With over 250 planet-friendly wine selections curated by co-owner and acclaimed sommelier Kathryn Coker, Esters' rotating, seasonal, French-inspired menu showcases California’s best ingredients. Plus they have an excellent grilled cheese and charcuterie to die for!

And if you are looking to plan a party, they have several spaces to host:
