Tommy's Beverly Hills - Event Venue

The Moneyed Beverly Hills Crowd Has a Sunny New Daytime Destination | Eater LA

"I stopped by the new downstairs cafe at Tommy’s Beverly Hills, a mostly al fresco operation with marble tables spread across long, tiled porticos, seats under tan arches with wrapping vines, and a small semi-circular dark green bar inside lit low with lamps and gilded-frame artwork. Owner Tommy Salvatore, long known as the manager of West Hollywood spot Craig’s, greets guests and walks customers through the new 90210 menu while chef Vartan Abgaryan (Yours Truly, Nueva Venice, 71Above) oversees the downstairs kitchen. For now it’s all about lunch (11 a.m.–5 p.m.), with a menu that blends Italian options—spicy meatball starters and cavatelli in a light poblano-coconut cream sauce—with everyday LA staples like a grain bowl, burger, and several salads, plus larger flourishes such as a pan-roasted New York strip and a chicken parm with smoked mozzarella. The second-floor primary dining room, balcony and all, is still a work in progress and expected to open by mid-February with a separate evening menu; the plan is to operate an all-day cafe downstairs and a more robust dinner space upstairs that will attract Beverly Hills diners, Craig’s regulars, celebrities, and others." - Farley Elliott
