Chez Jay Restaurant

4.6

About this business

Sometimes cheesy, probably crowded, and always eclectic, Chez Jay has been around longer than most start ups in Santa Monica can dream. This ruff and gruff bar has a crowd of energetic and devoted regulars. With a juke box and a floor covered in saw dust and peanut shells, Chez Jay Restaurant can hardly be said to offer gourmet cuisine, but you can find a decent meal and good hang out.

The food was OK, the prices a bit high but the service was awful. The waiter never came back to our table after serving the food, delivered our food and never took the salad plates and all of our waters were empty when we left having never been filled. But I guess that is why the add an automatic tip of 20% for a party of five... so they don't have to provide good service. We all agreed we would not go back.
