XUNTOS, "together" in Gallego, is a Tapas Bar from Chef Sandra Cordero in the heart of Downtown Santa Monica, serving small plates of things we want you to try: from the farmer's market around the corner to traditional dishes of Galicia, Asturias, Catalunya & the Basque Country, as they're eaten in Spain.

The wines follow the food: natural, fun & unrefined–joined at the bar with Spanish twists on classic cocktails, plus vermouths, sherries & cold cervezas.

Walk in to the bar for Xuntanza from 5-7pm, Tuesday-Saturday!

Please email us for large parties & private dining: hola@barxuntos.com

Validated parking is available across the street at 501 Santa Monica Blvd (Enter on 5th St.): $7 for 3 hours.

We enjoyed an evening where the head chef had brought in additional colleagues to give us a unique, gustatorially wonderful, and fun dining experience. The synergy amongst the chefs created a balance of cocktails, wine pairings, hors d'oeuvres, and tapas that kept us impressed and happy the whole evening.
