"Originally opened in 1966 with Frank Sinatra as an investor, La Dolce Vita’s Old Hollywood credentials are undisputed. But a great time at this revitalized Beverly Hills landmark doesn’t rely on nostalgia alone. You’ll find Italian American classics done right, elite service, and one of the best martinis we’ve ever tasted—all in a tiny, windowless room that feels like a boozy Oscars afterparty. In other words, take all the best elements of Dan Tana’s and throw in food so good it'll have your table fighting over the leftovers. That’s La Dolce Vita." - brant cox
