What people say

Mexican restaurants are known for their bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and vibrant atmosphere. Tallula's, located on Entrada Drive in Santa Monica, is a prime example of a Mexican restaurant that embodies all of these qualities and more.

Tallula's is a casual neighborhood restaurant that offers an array of delicious dishes made with the freshest local seafood and vegetables from the nearby Santa Monica Farmers' Market. The menu features incredible tacos showcasing housemade masa, as well as other Mexican-inspired dishes with imaginative twists. Executive Chef Saw Naing and Rustic Canyon Chef/Co-Owner Jeremy Fox oversee the kitchen, bringing their shared love for great ingredients and passion for homestyle cooking to every dish.

One of the standout features of Tallula's is its outdoor "Beer Garden," which provides a chill atmosphere for walk-ins and big groups alike. The tropical cocktails served at the bar perfectly complement the flavorful food options on the menu.

The owners of Tallula's, Josh Loeb and Zoe Nathan, have created a hidden oasis just steps away from the beach. Their vision for this space has been realized through their partnership with Chef Jeremy Fox, resulting in a globally-inspired Mexican restaurant that is utterly unique to Tallula's while still being comfortingly familiar.

Overall, Tallula's is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience delicious Mexican cuisine in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
