    The menu - you take a picture and then choose what to order at your table!

    My two friends, husband, and I went to Crudo E Nudo last night for dinner, and it was absolutely delicious! We had such a fun evening, and we loved the food. The service was lovely - our waitress couldn't have been nicer. We had the perfect amount of food for 4, and it was a great way to spend the evening. The menu is handwritten on a chalkboard daily, and they recommend you take a picture of it and then sit down and decide what you'll have. It was a cute idea! We ordered several dishes, and they all had such vibrant flavors. I absolutely loved the tuna tartare toast (along with all the tuna dishes) and the rockfish. But everything was really tasty! We also ordered a pouron of wine, which made for such a fun and goofy night with friends. The catch about ordering in the pouron is that the restaurant only allows you to order it if you agree to drink out of the bottle the entire evening. No glasses! I would definitely return, and I'm excited to bring more guests from out of town here. I loved the ambience of their outside deck, and I think many of our friends would love it here! Definitely feels like a unique spot.

    Crudo e Nudo is located in Santa Monica and has a relaxed beachy vibe that is fitting for where it is located. They specialize in raw seafood and crudo type of offerings. The menu offers a good variety of items, while the food was enjoyable, we felt that nothing really stood out and justified its pricing. Some of the dishes felt especially hard to justify such as $25 for 2 chocolate clams or $18 for a few bites of scallops. The quality was decent, but nothing truly stood out. During the day, they offer counter service and at dinner hours, they offer table side service. There are no printed menus, however, they do ask you to take a photo of the menus before being seated. This allows you to remember what you would like to order. The experience was underwhelming, and the restroom situation was quite interesting. To access the bathroom, you have to walk through the kitchen. The restroom itself wasn't well maintained and appeared to be used as a storage area with items on the floor etc. It definitely did not make for the experience and felt turned off by it. If you are looking for raw seafood and crudo, there are other spots in the area that may be a better choice. We enjoyed the food, but overall experience, we would probably go back to Si! Mon for our next crudo / outing when we return.

    Overall, a cute place with friendly waitstaff and good food. The fish was served a bit warmer than I would have preferred, but the flavors were enjoyable. The halibut had a salty sesame flavor, while the tuna was the standout dish with a fresh, citrusy taste. The bread topped with tuna was also delicious and packed with flavor. The scallops with butter were interesting and enjoyable. The bread itself was very good, and in hindsight, I regret ordering the olive oil since the bread paired better with the oils and sauces from the seafood dishes. Overall, it was a decent experience. The food had some highlights, especially the tuna, but nothing that would make me rush back.

    My new favorite seafood spot! My friend and I ordered the Crudo Trio (which that day featured off the menu Hamachi, the Rockfish and Blue Fin Tuna) and the Tuna Tartare toast. My favorite was the Rockfish! It had so many different flavors with the pepper, mandarin oil and what I thought was orange zest but was roe pouch shaved. The Blue Fin Tuna had an almost caprese like flavor. Hamachi was simple but fresh. The toast was large and generous in portion size. The fish melts in your mouth. The servers were all kind and helpful. The indoor seating was a bit hot but they had a portable AC unit going but definitely recommend the patio if it's nice out. The fresh flowers were a nice touch too. Will be a new regular here!

    Such a fun date night spot! Got the chef's tasting menu which ended up being a genuinely massive amount of food that I couldn't even finish so reasonable price all things considered. Everything was good. Favorites of mine included the tuna toast, kanpachi Crudo, and the oysters. We also got a bottle of wine in a pouron for $40 which was hilarious. The patio was lovely. The service was great. We were there for almost 3 hours despite the 90 minute time limit (through no fault of our own).

    Tuna Tartare Toast

    Ugh I came here for my birthday with my family and REALLY REALLY wanted to like this place, but the service was so slow. While the taste overall was quite good and they plate things beautifully, I agree that this is definitely overpriced especially given that it gave my parents FOOD POISONING :( I feel like we ordered almost everything on the menu (2 of certain dishes), but no one was full at the end. We had 7 people. We got the Bread and Oil service, Caesar Goes Vegan Salad, Garlic Noodles, Oysters, Prawns, Seared Scallops, Spicy Lobster Gnocchi, Mussels and Tuna Tartare Toast. Taste wise, our favorites were the caesar salad and prawns. The oysters were not good and were actually quite fishy tasting. The celery mash served with the scallops was also meh. Note this place is really small. Their indoors section only fits like 10 people and they can't take large groups indoors either. Unfortunately, due to the price and food poisoning, we will not be returning here. It's so so important for a seafood focused restaurant to have good quality especially if they are charging that kind of price for tiny plates.

    As a seafood lover, I needed to check this place out. The atmosphere is great, especially if you can grab a table outside. The outdoor seating creates a relaxed vibe, although the tables felt a little closer together than I would have preferred. Service was okay, nothing particularly memorable, but nothing negative either. The food itself was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The biggest surprise was the oysters, which were extremely salty and not quite what I was expecting. On the other hand, the tuna tartare toast was absolutely outstanding and easily the highlight of the meal. The crudos were also very good, but that tuna tartare toast is what will get me to come back.

    The gem that is Crudo e Nudo is a must visit! Located on Main Street in Santa Monica, you'd be forgiven to think this may be an overpriced tourist trap. But what you're really getting is a thoughtfully curated, responsibly sourced, and creative seafood based menu in a cozy and home-like environment with excellent and friendly service. We felt very welcomed from the moment we stepped in to the time we left. It was more akin to visiting friends than going out to a restaurant. The service was intimate and friendly without being overbearing. The suggestions were helpful and clearly reflected our preferences. While some of the dishes took longer than expected, overall we don't have any complaints with the extraordinary service. The ambience was cozy and special. The design isn't over the top and fanciful but rather modest, comfy, and intimate. Much like the name, it followed the theme of raw, naked, and unfiltered. Lastly, the food was amazing! They made each ingredient shine. From the tuna tartare toast to the lobster gnocchi, every dish was carefully curated and even the supporting ingredients (like the oil) were high quality and carefully curated to fit. The uni taco bites were to die for. Don't sleep on the secret menu caviar nachos either! Not a single dish disappointed us in any way; you're paying for quality. Overall, if you are looking for a cozy, sustainable sourced seafood meal with friendly atmosphere and staff, you can't go wrong with Crudo e Nudo. Easily 4.75 stars!

    Found this gem in downtown Santa Monica and let's just say we were very impressed. Started with the crudo trio, lobster, scallops and rock fish. Then we had roasted fish collars and roasted octopus. Octopus was a little on the chewy side but the flavors of the dish offset that. Would highly recommend stopping by here.

    So many great reviews on this place, had to come check it out, plus we were super sick of Thanksgiving leftovers.... Parking is not easy on Main Street, but behind there is plenty of meters in the lot. Place is very small, four tables inside but a nice setup outside with heat lamps. Warm greeting at the door and explained to look at the blackboard as their menu. It changes often based on what's fresh, in season, etc.. Pretty simple menu and all about fresh fish which was perfect after all that heavy holiday food. Kanpachi - Super fresh and delicious with the perfect amount of pickled onion to not overpower the flavor w/a great yuzu oil We almost ordered another one it was so on point Cioppino Stew - I've had this a few times and it can be too heavy or garlicky; this one was well balanced where the muscles and scallops where the star and not overpowered by other ingredients Just the right amount of bread for dunking Lobster Gnocchi - Talk about a winner! Perfectly cooked pasta with another well-balanced sauce that easily could have been overpowered by the Calabrian chilis It's a bit pricey but what isn't these days and it's nice to have seafood where you really can taste it Knowing the menu changes so often, we're sure to come back soon to see what's new/fresh! Quick tip - make a reservation if you want to eat inside!

    Service was lacking. The menu here feels like one where the waiters need to explain it well, and even though our waiter partially walked through the menu, we still felt confused. Even though it was our first time, it felt like they assumed we would know what things were. They were slow to refill our water and seemed to never notice our empty plates and would not take it away. We also had an empty beer glass and bottle that sat at the edge of the table for a majority of our meal. We got the kanpachi pretty quick after ordering but the uni taco took weirdly long considering how simple the dish is and doesn't require cooking. We waited 50+ minutes for a lukewarm ratatouille and between 60-75 minutes for our main dishes. The ratatouille and tagine were quite salty, with the tagine basically being inedible. Not sure we would come back. The crudo dishes were good but I wouldn't recommend getting their non raw fish dishes. There's a metered parking lot one block west. The restaurant is quite small inside with four tables, each with two seats, and a round table that probably sits 4 people. There is outdoor seating on Main St as well.

    We had such a great dinner at Crudo e Nudo. The service was honestly amazing and our server, David, made the whole experience feel really special. He took the time to walk us through the entire menu and helped us choose dishes he thought we'd love, which we really appreciated. Some of the standouts for us were the bluefin tuna, kanpachi, papas bravas, and the garlic noodles. The fish was incredibly fresh and everything was packed with flavor. We even ordered a side of bread just so we could soak up all the amazing olive oil and seasoning from the dishes, which was totally worth it. David also helped us pick out some wines. We told him the types of wine we usually enjoy and he came back with some amazing recommendations that paired perfectly with the food. We ended the meal with their homemade chocolate and almond butter cup, which was such a delicious way to finish everything off. Overall it was just such a lovely night with great food, great wine, and really thoughtful service. I also heard they change their menu every week, which makes me even more excited to come back and see what new dishes they come up with next.

    Fish is fresh and ingredients are creative but not overly complicated. My only issue is that most of the dishes were too salty - and I say this is a self proclaimed salt lover. If they could tone down the salt, I would have given this place five stars. Everything was good but standouts for me were the tuna tartare toast and the roasted collar. The bread they serve is delicious! I think they would benefit from a good dessert. Also, they have a system where you scan a QR code and pay on your phone, including tip. We did so and thanked the server and started walking out when the server stopped us and asked us if we'd closed out. We said yes, but then she asked us to show her the confirmation page. This felt a bit weird / accusatory and I think if they're going to do this anyway they may as well stick to the traditional way of taking the customer's credit card lol.

The Old Bay Cheese Fries were pretty good, too. Nice and crispy with a great Old Bay flavor, and the clumpy beer cheese dip complemented them well. I would definitely order them again. I plan to come back to try more of their menu, hopefully with a pint of beer. I want to try their lobster mac and cheese and lobster quesadilla. Lobster & Beer is absolutely worth a visit, especially for locals in Santa Monica who want a place to grab beers with friends. They have a lovely little patio out front.
