Gott’s Roadside Coming To Santa Monica

I’ve long known that Northern California’s legendary diner darling Gott’s Roadside was taking over the space at 401 Wilshire Blvd. Ste 140, most recently home to the short-lived Osteria Del Fornaio, but I only pass on information when I have concrete evidence. Now I do. A “notice of non-responsibility” recently went up on the front door naming the new tenant as Gott’s. Along with their other new location coming to The Original Farmers Market at Third and Fairfax, this is their first push into SoCal. Gott’s Roadside began in Napa Valley and has since grown to eight current locations, offering an innovative “modern take on American roadside classics” that you can check out here. Looks like they’re aiming for a Spring 2026 opening.

Something new is coming to The Original Farmers Market at 3rd and Fairfax.  There are banners up on a space on the south side of the Market announcing the arrival of Ettore Organic Food & Wine Osteria.  Ettore Winery hails from Mendocino where it produces an “organic and terroir-driven range” of wines and olive oil.  They appear to be branching out into food as this one is promising us an osteria.  Read more about Ettore‘s arrival to Mendocino from Europe here.  

Cobi’s Replaces Dhaba In Santa Monica

I’ve been keeping my eye on what has been happening at the former home of longtime iconic Indian standard Dhaba at 2104 Main St.  The location has been a hive of activity recently with construction and upgrades…  And now we know what’s going on.  A new sign has gone up announcing the arrival of Cobi’s at Dhaba, which soft-opened last night and is opening to the public on Thursday.  Cobi’s used to operate a restaurant at 8422 W 3rd St. that closed earlier this year.  This is a fresh start for the Southeast Asian eatery that is being described to me as “a new creation with ‘partial honors’ to the old Dhabba”.  Check out their menu here.  Reservations can now be found on Resy.  We wish them the best of luck.

It appears there’s a new poultry purveyor landing in The Original Farmers Market, on the corner of 3rd and Fairfax.  One of the spaces (#334 to be exact, it’s near Monsieur Marcel) has a sign up announcing the impending arrival of a new venture named Market Chicken.  A still-developing website promises “rotisserie chicken, wraps, salads, sides and more”.
