Golden State Menu

Our Menus

SoCal is all about fresh & modern Southern Californian ‘share-style’ street food, packed with Latin American spices alongside house-made sauces and freshly indulgent sides.

The food and drinks are a reflection of what is commonly found along Highway 101. Our Head Chef Chris Webber alongside Applejack Culinary Director Patrick Friesen have collaborated on a fresh menu direction featuring delicious tacos, shares and mains. The creativity has produced a mix of shared dishes comprising of fresh seafood, North American cooking techniques and Mexican flavours.

Offering an extensive beverage list developed by Group Beverage Manager Donovan Binks and Bar Manager Owen Trickett, SoCal is the place to unwind after a long day. The dedicated Margarita menu offers no less than 8 variations, and the tequila and mezcal flights are unmissable for agave enthusiasts.

*We cater for most dietary requirements. Whilst all reasonable efforts are taken to accommodate dietary needs, we cannot guarantee that our food will be allergen free. Prices and items are subject to seasonal changes.

About Flecha Azul:
Using traditional methods from Jalisco, Mexico, Flecha Azul grows 100% estate blue weber agave for up to 8 years before harvest, producing their signature mineral-rich flavour. Hand-selected by Jimadores, the agave hearts are roasted for 48 hours before open-air fermentation. The tequila is twice-distilled, then aged in bourbon-seasoned American oak.

Master Distiller Lorena Diaz—one of only 12 women among 152 tequila distillers—crafts the final blends, creating a testament to artisanal tradition from this family-owned distillery.
