New French-Californian Restaurant, Lounge Opening This Summer

SANTA MONICA, CA — New French-Californian restaurant and lounge LOULOU will open its rooftop spot this summer in Santa Monica.

The French-inspired menu will feature plats du jour, specialty cocktails, and an extensive list of French wines and champagnes; including an exclusive LOULOU Cuvée. Menu highlights will include classic French-Californian dishes such as lobster, octopus and fresh truffle.

Expect an outdoor atmosphere with candlelit trees, greenery and a bamboo roof creating an intimate, chic space.

The new Westside location is created by longtime entertainment aficionados, Erik and Florence Chol. In 2015, the Chol’s restored the historic Globe Theatre on Broadway in downtown Los Angeles, which has now become one of the most renowned multi-event spaces in California.

LOULOU is the duo's first restaurant concept and they plan to offer more than just the typical dining routine — surprising guests with artistic performances and other happenings.

LOULOU will be located at 395 Santa Monica Pl #300, Santa Monica, on the rooftop deck at Santa Monica Place.
