We had a private dinner program here with 12 persons and a pre-fixed menu. We waited exactly 2 hours for our main course to arrive and 1/2 our diners left before the meal arrived. When I brought it to the attention of the manager she said to me "
One of my favorite restaurants on the Westside.
Everything went so smoothly. Service was exceptional and everyone makes you feel like a special guest. When you enter the restaurant you feel like you're going to someone's home. Casual but elegant with a homey feel to it. Outdoor patio

This place deserves a 5 star I cannot express how much the food is so comforting and extremely fresh . The menu is a 10!!! My favorites are below but if you have a celebration coming up go here!! Just keep in mind, it's expensive. Staff 1000/10

Great food and great service, but it was so freaking loud that it actually did unfortunately kind of ruin the meal. It was just way too loud. I was with a group of people and we were kind of getting to know each other and nobody could easily hear eac

Came here for date night and although the food was good, sanitation wise the restaurant could use a little work.

It was our first time at Fia Restaurant after having been to the next door Fia Steakhouse, and it did not disappoint! There's ample street parking just around the corner. Don't miss the ever so slightly hidden entrance (not to be confused w

Fia was such a cute restaurant! We made reservations online for a Thursday evening at 6:30, which required a deposit. I don't think making the reservation was really necessary because there is tons of seating both indoor and outdoor. The outside

Beautiful setting, wonderful staff and amazing food what else could you ask for a dining experience? Fia delivers.
If only the food were as good as the venue and the service.
Our table was ready when we arrived. Our cocktails arrived quickly. Service was superb throughout the meal. Wish I could say the same for the food. The chopped salad was too salty and the flavors didn't really come together. The brussels sprouts
Great experience across the board!
Excellent for a special occasion or just a really great night out overall. The service was outstanding - did not rush us, but we weren’t waiting around for the next course, either. We had the tasting menu - which was really well portioned and gav
There’s but
The food is good, service is as you would expect in such a restaurant. However, the shock came with the bill when we saw the price of the wine recommended to us by their sommelier: 60$ a glass, yes, per glass, not a bottle for Californian Cabernet…
Italian with a twist but not enough to make it ... super tasty nor really Italian
Gia is a beautiful place with a beautiful open courtyard. It's had a good vibe and ambiance They serve delicious cocktails and Italian food with a twist It said on the menu that tier pasta is home made. We had very good arancini, nice prosciutt

I am absolutely amazed by this place! It's so gorgeous with both outside dining and an inside patio. The outside area is magical--hidden away with beautiful lights, creating a comforting and romantic atmosphere. It's a great spot for catching up with

Excellent little gem!
Excellent California vibe! We sat outside on the patio with little lights strung above. We were a bit late because of traffic but the hostess was so welcoming and calm. Our server was excellent and offered suggestions and recommendations that were sp
Extremely mid for the price.
The ambiance is nice but I don't think any of the dishes we had were a standout. Service was crazy slow as well. I was with a large party with a preset menu. I think we started eating at 6 and we didn't leave til almost 10 You're better off going to

Decided to finally try this spot once again and was quite impressed. It was a Wednesday evening but the place was packed with trendy people. Only open for dinner Sunday - Thursday 5-9p, Friday - Saturday 5-10p, except for weekend brunch 1030-4p. Ther
Ordered appetizers, they were good, off to a great start.
Salmon cones and potatoes w fondue, 10/10, the beef Wellington tasted disgusting and so did the gnocchi pasta with black truffles. It's overly powered with garlic that you can taste the actual flavor of the pasta or sauce. You leave feeling HUNGRY af

Hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Santa Monica.
I love the outdoor ambiance, it's extremely peaceful and beautifully decorated with string lights. The perfect restaurant for outdoor seating on a nice summer day. Everything on the menu is meant to be shared. I highly recommend the chopped salad, ra
TLDR: Unfortunately, the poor service is more memorable
TLDR: Unfortunately, the poor service is more memorable than the food. At Fia, the customer is always wrong and they are going to prove it! I live in the area and have visited Fia three times now. I will say that I do enjoy the food and the ambiance
I usually stop here for drinks only.
Most of the bartenders are cool. Some come with a heap of LA attitude. Havent tried the food, over priced drinks of course. Stuffy ambiance not much to be expected for location. Not much diversity besides people working there.

I would've given them 4 stars but their pretentious server (I'm not actually sure he was a sommelier - he was wearing a light grey suit and an ugly man bun), was a jackass. We ordered a bottle (and 2 after) and all I did was smell the cork. He then b

Service slow.
Dress accordingly because it's cold indoor or outdoor despite the heat warmers. You can request blankets, thank goodness for the blankets. Ordered the 4 course specialty menu. Pasta for second course was very good. Filet came out cool to touch but ha

Dinner was amazing.
Beautiful restaurant. Wonderful customer service. The calamari was so good, even though it looked interesting. The star of the night was the seafood risotto.

This is the most insanely expensive restaurant for absolutely no reason. I walked away from a birthday dinner spending over $125 for barely any food and drinks... if you want to spend all the money that you have and leave hungry and sober, go here. I
Love the twinkly lights with the indoor/ outdoor setting.
Perfect space for a date or a group dinner. I came with a very large party and had the opportunity to try quite a few dishes. Must try dishes are the CRISPY SPICY TUNA, CAESAR SALAD, CALAMARI, CRISPY FRIED POTATO, BEEF SHORT RIBS, SEABASS, and of cou

I came here for a birthday brunch, and the service and value were amazing. For $67 per person, we got pastries, our own entree, and bottomless drinks for 2 hours. As a vegan, I was a bit worried about a fixed menu. However, the waitress was super kin

Came to Fia for their Sunday bottomless mimosa/margarita/rose brunch. The ambience on their outdoor patio is absolutely beautiful & we felt transported away. The food was delicious but my favorites were the shrimp and grits and fried chicken.

FIA has been my go-to spot lately, and it's like finding a little slice of perfection every time I walk in. The vibes are always on point, the service is top-notch, and the food is great. Their steaks? Pure magic. Always cooked just right and burst
Celebrated a birthday with brunch at this fabulous place.
Service was on point! Tony did a great job! Everything was delicious. Portions were generous and we loved the indoor/outdoor feel of the place. As a sweet gesture, a complimentary birthday cupcake came out at the end of our meal. Absolutely lovely! C
Giving this four stars purely based on the atmosphere.
Food is good but very pricey. Cocktails or delicious as we're all of our entrées. Great place for girls night out birthday parties or just a date night. Used to be Wilshire restaurant which I loved and now this is a good replacement.

Had dinner here last night with friends after hearing good things, but frankly it was below average. I wanted to love it, but in a nutshell the food was subpar, service was not great, and the price isn't worth it. I'd only come here again for the atm

Was absolutely blown away- the ambiance, service, food, and drinks were all top notch! My only complaint was our group of 10 was crunched into a table against the wall and we had to sit on an awful bunch which was crowded with decorative pillows.

Beautiful outdoor restaurant tucked away in an alley.
Gorgeous lighting and trees that really set the scene whether you're on a date or celebrating an occasion. Service was amazing, staff very helpful and clean bathrooms. Only thing was the specials off the menu are overwhelming. But we stuck to order

Crowd was mixed and dressed casual to upscale casual. I would suggest putting in your best Zara outfit no need to been fancy. They have indoor outdoor seating (heat lamps). Staff is very professional and ready to work. Cocktail menu is curated. Trie

Beautiful restaurant, delicious food
Our hotel concierge recommended this place and we were thoroughly pleased. Of course good food is paramount but it’s even better when served in a pretty place with great service. Fia has all three. While it didn’t bother us, I noticed it was live

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Fia Restaurant Santa Monica. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Fia Restaurant Santa Monica at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Fia Restaurant Santa Monica page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Fia Restaurant Santa Monica to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Fia Restaurant Santa Monica!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
