"Longtime classic offers Michael McCarty's upscale Californian cuisine in an art-filled room."

Michael's is a Santa Monica restaurant and private event venue founded by Michael McCarty in 1979, credited as an early pioneer of California cuisine. The restaurant is known for market-driven plates using local produce and hyper-seasonal ingredients, with a wine list that includes vintages from McCarty's own The Malibu Vineyard and modern art displayed throughout the space. Founded in 1979 by Michael McCarty, the restaurant has hosted chefs including Jonathan Waxman, Nancy Silverton, Brooke Williamson, Sang Yoon, Mark Peel, and Miles Thompson; McCarty also authored a cookbook that received a 2008 James Beard Foundation Cookbook award nomination in the entertaining category. Located at 1147 3rd Street, Santa Monica. Couples who hosted weddings here cite the food, staff, and atrium setting as highlights, with one wedding party of 75 guests reporting the event went smoothly.

This vendor hasn’t completed verification

Verified vendors have uploaded credentials such as a business license or proof of insurance, and our team reviewed each document by hand. Verification is a trust signal, not a requirement: you can still reach out, and payments run through Stripe either way.

Michael's hasn't claimed their United Vows profile yet, but you can still reach them.

We don't have an email address on file for Michael's, so we can't forward an inquiry to them. The way to reach them today is to call (310) 451-0843. You can still send one here — we'll keep it on your inquiries list, and it will be waiting for them the moment they claim this profile.

Two things worth knowing before you transact:

If your booking happens on United Vows: A $100 United Vows welcome or favor credit, if you hold one — this credit comes off one booking here, in full, funded from our commission on it, once that booking is a booking of $2,900 or more, paid to them in a single payment of at least $1,500 — you get messaging, quotes and contracts in one place, your payment runs securely through Stripe against a signed contract, and if the vendor no-shows, cancels close to your date or delivers nothing you can file a claim from the booking, which they have seven days to answer.
If the booking happens off-platform: none of the above. Your credits don't redeem. We can't help if anything goes sideways.

The simplest move: when you reach out, ask Michael's to claim their profile. It's free and takes a few minutes. It keeps your booking on the platform where everything we built for you actually works.
