If you're a lover of travel there's a new hot spot in Santa Monica that is sure to be right up your alley. Élephante merges Southern Italy touches with nods to the beautiful country of Africa as you overlook the ocean in Santa Monica - talk about the best of ALL worlds!

From the mastermind of Nick Mathers (the name behind local hotspots such as: Eveleigh, Goldie's, Little Ruby, Dudley's and more, Élephante is sure to be your new 'go-to,' as it officially opens its doors on July 10th! Fully engulfed in natural hues with added interior touches of Tigerwood floors, limestone walls, Buherra baskets and hand woven plates from Africa, Elephante is a true beauty!

Recently celebrity guests: Claire Holt, Becca Tobin, Kilo Kish, Ireland Baldwin, Katherine Hughes, Reeve Carney and Paris Carney, stopped by to check out the space during an private preview which took place at the gorgeous rooftop space overlooking the ocean in Santa Monica. Guests enjoyed small bites paired with an array of Italian varietal wines and curated cocktails.

Industry influencers such as Anita Patrickson (Designer & Stylist), Brent Bolthouse (Event Producer),  Riawna Capri (Hairstylist to the stars) and Renee Bargh (TV Personality) also attended the exclusive launch to show their support of Mathers.

Once the sun went down, the music turned up with a surprise performance by Matthew Handley of Yolanda Be Cool and Michael Di Francesco of Touch Sensitive.

Mathers and Executive Chef Thomas Lim have created a space that are both visually appealing as it is palatable. Grab a cocktail and unwind as you teleport to the beautiful Pantelleria. The menu, the space, the vibes, are divine and one not to be missed.
