Birdie G's Launches $5 - $15 Happy Hour Specials In Santa Monica

SANTA MONICA, CA — Birdie G's restaurant in Santa Monica has launched a new “Early Birdie’s Happy Hour”—with $5 to $15 snacks and cocktails.

Plus, also added to the happy hour menu are such new dishes as Vernors-baked ham with pickled melon ($14) and the whipped avocado with fried matzo (a Jewish spin on guac & chips for $12).

The specials, offered at "The Bird's Nest" (aka, the bar/lounge) and curated by Chef/Partner Jeremy Fox and Chef de Cuisine Matthew Schaler, run daily from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Michigan Avenue eatery.

Also on the new menu are kippered sable terrine with crispy potato waffles ($14), lavender almonds ($5) and three kinds of fries (Reuben, Caesar and an aioli version, from $7 to $12).

For larger appetites, there is the Half Fried Pickle Chick ($34) and the debut of the Kishka Burger ($25) — a quarter-pounder with seared blood sausage, Hook’s Swiss, house-pickled cornichons, red onion and persimmon “comeback sauce” on a sesame pretzel bun.

For cocktails, bar manager Stephanie Reading has crafted a "Chamomile Lavender Lemonade Mocktail" for $4, $12 seasonal cocktails, including the "Staycation Summer" with lime, kumquat, strawberry brandy and tequila, plus $6 craft beer. Sommelier Kobi Tsesarsky has assembled a variety of $12 glasses of wine.

Part of the Rustic Canyon Family Restaurant group, Birdie G's is at 2421 Michigan Ave. in Santa Monica. See the eatery's website here or follow here on Facebook.
