“craft whiskey cocktails”
Soigné’s Julian Cox and Josh Goldman’s flagship bar and restaurant, Brilliantshine, in Santa Monica, features a signature menu of primarily craft whiskey cocktails. The kitchen, under the direction of Chef Richie Lopez (formerly executive chef of Paiche), provides dinner and weekend brunch. Dining menus were created to complement the beverage program, and to present a unique dining option for the Westside.
Most L.A. cocktail bars seem to start with Julian Cox. The barman behind Petty Cash, Bestia, Picca et al. recently debuted his Santa Monica flagship with partner Josh Goldman. The theme: seaside saloon. Grab a stool at the charming old-timey bar (think: vintage piano, brass fixtures) and order a Rome with a View ($10)—Campari, dry vermouth, soda and a lime wheel—or Spread Love, It's the Brooklyn Way ($12) with rye whiskey, China-China bitters, dry vermouth and maraschino. There are Peruvian bites, too—we love the shrimp ceviche ($11) and lobster uni rice ($21). You can even post up for the night on the alfresco patio.
