About Rustic Canyon

Rustic Canyon has been doing the farm-to-table thing since before the term became a marketing slogan, and the restaurant's staying power comes from the kitchen's genuine commitment rather than the branding. Jeremy Fox cooks vegetable-forward California food that doesn't announce itself as such — the produce is the starting point, not the concept — and the result is dinner that tastes like a clear-eyed version of what's happening in California agriculture right now. The wine list covers natural and small-production wines with a thoroughness that has made it a destination for sommeliers and wine nerds who happen to be eating well in Santa Monica.
