Welcome to the place where summer never ends. Summer House is a California-inspired restaurant that offers sunshine vibes all year round. The menu features simple ingredients sourced from local grower partnerships and sustainable products. It is centered around seasonality, offering plenty of healthy and hearty options, alongside an extensive California wine list, light and refreshing craft cocktails, zero-proof beverages, and more. The Market also serves as a memorable spot in the restaurant with a selection of fresh-baked goods, pastries, sourdough English muffins, and Summer House’s famous oversized cookies, along with small-batch coffee and specialty espresso drinks. Evoking a breezy Santa Monica beach house feel, the interiors are filled with whitewashed wood, lush greenery, earth-toned tiling, and warm hues to create a bright and airy atmosphere. Guests will also spot an iconic bright blue “YES” sign featured in every location that embodies its warm and welcoming lifestyle. Whether it’s date night, a family get-together, or brunch with friends, summer is waiting on the other side.
Having experienced a great working relationship, I highly recommend collaborating with Donovan and his team on future ventures. Donovan was always proactive in providing upscale vision for the clients and was able to look forward to keeping the project flowing in the fast-paced construction industry we work in. Communication between the client’s needs and construction team was one of his strong points. Donovan's skills shine in working with multiple design teams with diverse visions, showcasing his keen eye for detail and a broad understanding of design across different spectrums.
