The Spot
Summer House Santa Monica brings a California-inspired menu to Lincoln Park under Chef Ben Goodnick, part of the Lettuce Entertain You restaurant group. The kitchen sources simple ingredients through local grower partnerships and sustainable products, and rosé is poured throughout service off a signature Rosé Cart, alongside a wider wine and cocktail list.

The space is designed for a bright, airy feel that holds regardless of the weather outside, and it's positioned to work for brunch with friends, date night, or larger family gatherings. Menu regulars mentioned by diners include burrata, fish tacos, guacamole, brussels sprouts, salmon, and a chocolate chip dessert.

The Chicago location is one of several Summer House Santa Monica restaurants across the country, all operating under the same California-inspired concept.
