Wine Country Meets Beach Culture

Located just minutes from the beach, Wally’s Santa Monica has become a local institution for connoisseurs, collectors, and casual sippers alike. Here, world-class wine meets seasonal California cuisine—with the ocean breeze as your backdrop.
A Cellar Like No Other
Wine is the heartbeat of Wally’s, and our Santa Monica location is no exception. With over 6,000 bottles available in-store, from everyday favorites to rare treasures like Screaming Eagle and Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, we offer one of the most diverse and prestigious selections in the country.
Whether you're exploring Napa Valley reds, classic Bordeaux, or niche natural wines, our expert team is here to guide you. Looking for something to sip now? Our on-site Sommeliers can help you find the perfect bottle for tonight’s dinner or this weekend’s celebration.
“We believe every bottle tells a story,” says a Wally’s Wine Director. “Our job is to help you discover the one that speaks to yours.”

Dining at Wally’s Santa Monica is an experience in itself. Helmed by our acclaimed culinary team, the menu features a thoughtful blend of European influence and California freshness. From truffle-infused pizza to perfectly seared filet, every plate is as satisfying as it is shareable.
Guests can also indulge in our signature gourmet boards, featuring artisan cheeses, premium charcuterie, and seasonal accoutrements. The wine list? Deep, daring, and expertly paired. Whether you're joining us for brunch, a casual lunch, or a celebratory dinner, expect nothing short of perfection.
Rare Spirits & Handcrafted Cocktails
Not into wine? No problem. Wally’s Santa Monica offers a spirits program that rivals any cocktail bar in Los Angeles. Think limited-edition whiskey, expertly aged rum, and mezcal straight from Jalisco. Our bartenders don’t just mix drinks—they craft experiences, complete with house-made infusions, seasonal garnishes, and one-of-a-kind pours.
Ask for a barrel-aged Old Fashioned, or let our team create a custom cocktail that suits your flavor profile. Either way, you’ll be in good hands.
