CALIFORNIA CUISINE | INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS | L.A. ATTITUDE

Chef Kim Vu blends technique with a host’s intuition, layering char, sauce, and acid until the flavors lock in. Precision without pretense. For locals, crews, and celebration seekers, not velvet ropes.

Backyard Garden Party × Night Market Energy

A fun-casual brasserie built for the patio, where the grill leads the room and the service wears sneakers, anchored by our coal-fired ribeye cap finished with miso demi, green peppercorn jus, and a marrow-butter add-on you won’t forget, and paired with the Garden Glow Martini, clarified yuzu, butterfly pea gin, cucumber ice, and a citrus-sparkle rim, with an equally photogenic Free Spirit twin.

Saturday night in Santa Monica starts the same way every time — with a table at Sorry Not Sorry.

By 8PM, the Deck Patio hums like a heartbeat. Glasses clink. Someone laughs too loud. Someone else orders another round. And then the plates arrive — color, aroma, and joy all landing at once. You can taste the craft, the fire, the Chef’s obsession.

This isn’t dinner. It’s the main event.

Imagine this: a secret dinner where the Chef serves dishes not yet on the menu.
Where the flavors are still in draft mode — and you’re the first to try them.

That’s The Lab.

It’s not a club. It’s an experiment.

It’s the inner circle of Sorry Not Sorry — where foodies become flavor testers and friends turn into co-conspirators in taste.

If you love the unknown and trust your instincts (and your appetite), The Lab is where you belong.

Curious yet? You should be.

Here’s to the big 3-0 — and to celebrating like the decade didn’t humble you (because it did, but you deserve this).

Our Back Patio transforms into birthday heaven: string lights overhead, cocktails flowing, and cupcakes that sparkle harder than your new era.

Whether it’s a private dinner, a blowout bash, or a lowkey night of toasts and bad dancing — we’re here for it.

You bring the guests. We’ll bring the flavor, the playlist, and a little bit of chaos.
Because you’re not getting older.

You’re just getting more unapologetic.
Cheers to yours 30, and to being Sorry. Not. Sorry.

A night at Sorry Not Sorry isn’t about eating. It’s about orbiting.

Around laughter, around friends, around plates that demand your full attention.

Chef Kim calls it “organized chaos.” We call it magic.

Sushi rolls share the table with grilled sliders, next to street-style tacos and delicate hors d’oeuvres — because why should you ever have to choose?

This is how Santa Monica celebrates — no rules, no hierarchy, just great food, great company, and maybe a martini too beautiful to drink (but you’ll drink it anyway).

Your next event deserves this energy.

Somewhere between the first pour of chardonnay and the last bite of grilled asparagus, you realize this isn’t dinner.

It’s a love letter to California produce.

Chef Kim Vu takes something as humble as asparagus and turns it into a headline act — charred to perfection, layered with shaved parmesan, finished with wild blossoms that look like they were just picked from the Santa Monica pier breeze.

It’s earthy, fresh, and a little flirty — kind of like that person across the table you can’t stop stealing bites from.

For those who taste with their eyes first, and their hearts second.

There’s a moment — right before brunch hits its stride — when the smell of crisped bacon takes over the Lounge.That’s your cue.

At Sorry Not Sorry, bacon isn’t a side — it’s a main character. Smoky, unapologetic, and piled high, it’s everything your weekend dreams are made of.

Whether you’re a mimosa loyalist or a Bloody Mary enthusiast, this is your Sunday religion — and your church has a bar.

Gather your crew, claim your corner of the Deck Patio, and let brunch roll into golden-hour cocktails. It’s LA’s favorite kind of sin — indulgent, loud, and totally worth it.

Sorry? Never.
