10 LA Restaurants With Great Cocktails - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"The main purpose of this rooftop spot is to look fabulous while drinking fabulous things with fabulous people in a fabulous setting (did we say fabulous enough?). This restaurant sibling to Dante NYC takes up the top floor of The Maybourne Hotel, with a dining room that’s just as beautiful as its panoramic views and a menu of mostly unremarkable Italian dishes. At its heart, however, Dante is a cocktail bar. The bartenders are experts with classics like a 50/50 martini and whipped Garibaldis, but really, they’re capable of making anything you can think of with confidence and finesse. This is Beverly Hills, so expect to spend at least $20 per drink, a price that feels worthwhile for the memorable experience (and the setting)." - sylvio martins, brant cox, garrett snyder
