Named after James Beard-nominated chef Jeremy Fox’s daughter Birdie and grandmother Gladys, Birdie G’s is a fun, all-American restaurant inspired by childhood memories and family traditions — you’ll feel a sense of nostalgia, no matter when or where you grew up. The original Birdie G’s was located within Santa Monica’s historic Bergamot Station and earned Michelin Plate recognition in California’s guide since 2021. Now, its newest chapter unfolds at the legendary Fairmont Century Plaza in the heart of Century City, serving hotel guests and welcoming neighbors from Century City and all of Los Angeles alike.

Breakfast offers comfort dishes, fresh pastries, and artisan coffee, while lunch takes on a dual personality — casual and friendly with Jewish Deli undertones for some, and elevated power lunch options for others. Weekend Brunch brings deli extravagance to the weekend table, and dinner becomes an elegant affair centered on premium steaks, chops, birds, and fish. The cuisine draws influences from various regions across the United States and Europe, paying homage to timeless family recipes while showcasing the finest seasonal ingredients — many sourced from the nearby Santa Monica Farmers’ Market.

The menu ranges from beloved American classics to more whimsical offerings. Classic cocktails, nostalgic modern creations, and a world-class wine list sourced exclusively from chemical-free vineyards round out the experience. Because the restaurant is family friendly, there’s a fun kids’ menu too.

Birdie G’s is where comfort meets craft, and every meal feels like coming home.

Design

Birdie G’s Century City is a 150-seat restaurant designed by EDG Design Studio, housed within a 5,000 SF space in the historic Fairmont Century Plaza hotel. Birdie G’s reimagines the American brasserie through a distinctly Los Angeles lens, pairing the retro-chic character of the iconic midcentury setting with Birdie G’s irreverent, highly personal spirit.

Rich walnut, warm amber light, cozy banquettes are layered with a riot of plaids, sunshine and avocado hues, vintage graphics, eclectic artwork and playful bird motifs, creating a space that feels nostalgic without becoming thematic. The design moves easily between midcentury glamour, classic diner familiarity and the bohemian energy of the 1970s and ‘80s, while open culinary and bar programs add theater and immediacy.

Named for chef Jeremy Fox’s daughter Birdie and grandmother Gladys, the restaurant carries that same balance of memory and reinvention into its food, blending American comfort dishes, Jewish deli traditions and California grown ingredients with a progressive culinary point of view. The result is spirited, unexpected and unmistakably LA — a new classic for Century Plaza.
