R+D kitchen has a warm, cozy, neighborhood feel to it which we love. The food is delicious and the drinks are great. We enjoy the crispy chicken sandwich and the Asian chicken noodle salad.
The only thing I’d say could be improved is the service. The staff can be a little cold which takes away from the neighborhood feel. Upon our recent visit, my brother ordered the rotisserie chicken and it came out cold. When we informed a staff member, they did not apologize or seem to care and said they’d “warm it up” in a sassy voice, which left us with a sour taste.
Overall R+D is a solid spot!

R+D Kitchen on Montana Ave is always a solid choice. The space is stylish, upbeat, and perfect for a casual yet classy dinner. I loved their Cheeseburgers and the fresh salads. Service was friendly and attentive without being pushy. Prices are a little high for the portions, and waits can be long at peak hours, but the overall quality and vibe make it worth it.

Great meal at R&D. Definitely will come again. Thought the shrimp appetizer were okay. Definitely not worth price level in my opinion. The real star of the meal was the ribs. Incredible meal!! The crispy chicken sandwich was also good but the ribs are a must!! Can’t wait to try other items in the menu. Staff were very friendly and attentive!

My wife were in Santa Monica visiting our son and he suggested that we check this place out. Well we did and the food was fantastic as well as the service. We were in town for 7 days and we actually came here twice! The first time was for launch which we enjoyed a nice salad with a small appetizer and a cocktail. The second time we came in for dinner and had an amazing hamburger that was thick and prepared exactly how I like it (medium) .
This is definitely one of our favorites now on Montana Ave. we will definitely be back we come come out and visit next.

On a recent trip to Napa visiting our Great Granddaughter our granddaughter suggested we have our final night dinner at R+D Kitchen in nearby Yountville.
The staff was very welcoming to our party of 5 including GGD Rosali, 3.
The polish and professionalism of this house shines throughout. To illustrate, I ordered a very cold, extra cold slightly dirty vodka Martini. They asked not only how many but what kind of olives I’d like. It WAS perfect. Then half way thru my sipping our server brings me a new fresh frosted glass. Yeah, that always happens. Pretty impressive.
Across the full array of food we ordered brought rave reviews. The ribs, beef short ribs, flat iron steak, salads were all top tier. Of particular merit was the Yellowtail sashimi kale vinaigrette salad. It was special¹⁰. I absolutely loved it.
Thank you R+D for a memorable dining experience. I must say, it was the #1 meal out this year so far. Very highly recommended if you didn’t get that message all ready.

What a great vibe with great tasting food and excellent service. We waited 30 min for a table on a Saturday night which was no problem as there is so much great window shopping on the street and they texted us when our table was ready. The drinks selection is vast they have these daily specials which all look good and would have me coming different days of the week to taste them all. We wanted the Picnic Sandwich which was albacore tuna but had already sold out. We settled on salad which was perfectly dressed with a variety of textures and a burger which was delicious. Will return next time we are in Santa Monica. Prices were good and in line with the quality and experience.

New menu item (chicken curry) tasted delicious but could be presented better or with a shorter wait. But wait staff service made the long wait better.

This place is solid and super consistent. The vibe is a bit polished but pretty in line with the rest of the restaurants in the area.
Standout dishes the Scottish Salmon, the classic cheeseburger (I go lettuce-wrapped), can’t forget the Hillstone Nergroni! Prices are reasonable, and you’re allowed to usually sub out sides at no cost. Always a good time!

Food is consistently so good. Must try the artichoke dip and chicken sandwich. They also replace your martini with a cold glass which is a nice touch. The service is friendly but a little cold. Our server seemed nice but was weirdly quiet
