Went here during my birthday weekend for brunch and I had a great time! Love the bottomless mimosas for 27 dollars! (90 minute limit) and I devoured the egg sandwich that I ordered while my boyfriend could not get enough of his steak and eggs. We’d definitely come back.

Great service. I ordered the waffles and chicken, which tasted amazing. I also ordered a side of fruit and bottomless mimosas.. I had to tell them no more champagne because I was too tipsy lol I highly recommend this restaurant.

The food was good. The table was not balanced. It was rockey. The waitress could have been more attentive. Other than that it’s a good place to eat.

Follow me. Perfect place for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner because it’s located right near the Santa Monica pier. The food was excellent and made to order. The brunch burger is a must try. Everything on one sandwich. The fruit was fresh and the bacon was cooked perfectly. The Belgian waffles and eggs was cooked just like we asked. The breakfast potatoes was really good. You just don’t get that much. We sat outside and it was perfect. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. They have bottomless mimosas and a variety of coffee and teas to choice from. They also have a Happy hour which is drinks only. Wednesday-Friday 4pm-6pm. The inside is very modern and pretty. The bathrooms was clean.

Douglas was amazing! So informative, warm, and friendly. The food was delicious! The wings and braised short were…chef’s kiss!

The Independence is a wonderful dining experience in Santa Monica. Have been quite a few times. I’ve had the oysters, fish and chips, salmon, and wings. Each dish was delicious and the presentation was on point. Also the drink menu has a decent assortment of wines and liquors. Although I am personally partial to the Uncle Nearest. Great vibe and professional and attentive staff. When in LA check it out.

Friendly greeting at front door, immediately seated and water offered straight away by owner. Server was extremely friendly, efficient and used perfect attentiveness level. Nice beer and wine selection, with very tasty BLT, omelette & frites.
