Time Out says

Light, bright and airy, Esters is the wine-oriented outpost of the Rustic Canyon Family, one of the most prolific restaurant groups in Santa Monica. In-house sommelier Randall Middleton oversees a selection of over 250 wines that include everything from unique small producers to tried-and-true classics. Those who'd rather order by the glass will find about 20, with France, Italy, Spain and the U.S. all represented through the thoughtful selection. Outdoors, a small patio area lets you sip while people-watching. A seasonal small plates menu rounds out a trip to Esters, including baked Brie, chicken liver mousse and chef Jeremy Fox’s famous grilled cheese—as well as mix-and-match cheese and charcuterie boards.
