Chef Jeremy Fox’s Eatery Will Host a Final “8 Nights” Dinner Series in December
Birdie G’s , the venerated Santa Monica restaurant known for its inventive American comfort food, will permanently close at the end of the year, the restaurant announced on social media on Wednesday. Its final service is scheduled for Dec. 31.
The restaurant, which opened in 2019, was created by chef Jeremy Fox as a tribute to his daughter, Birdie, and his grandmother, Gladys. The statement said the restaurant quickly gained a loyal following and critical acclaim but faced a series of setbacks just months after opening, starting with the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing with staffing shortages, labor strikes, fires, and a decline in tourism that hit the local dining industry hard.
