Dante at the Maybourne blends vibrant Italian-Mediterranean flavors, creative cocktails, and stunning Hollywood Hills views in chic Beverly Hills style.
"$10 martinis on a Beverly Hills rooftop? No, that's not a typo. This LA offshoot of a beloved NYC cocktail hangout sits on the ninth floor of the Maybourne Hotel, where you can enjoy views of the Hollywood Hills from the comfort of a blue velvet booth. The drink menu here covers a lot of ground, but for their Happy Hour the focus is exclusively on martinis: choose from seven distinct styles made with vodka or gin, including the classic with a twist, a dirty upside-down Gibson, and a Poor Things martini tinted with white port and rosewater." - garrett snyder, brant cox, cathy park
"Set on the ninth floor of the Maybourne Beverly Hills, Dante offers an indoor dining room that flows into a patio with views of the Hollywood Hills. The Italian-meets-Mediterranean menu relies on market-fresh ingredients, seafood, and coastal Italian flavors with blistered wood-fired pizzas, crudo, and boozy affogatos. This is an ideal patio even if not looking for a full meal; it’s easy to pop by for a round of cocktails and oysters." - Rebecca Roland
"Brunch is great, but brunch with a view overlooking Beverly Hills? That’s perfection. Located on the roof of boutique hotel The Maybourne, Dante has a wide-ranging menu of typical dishes like harvest bowls, frittatas, and granola, but our recommendation is to order a wood-fired pizza for the table and get to cocktail-ing. Nothing makes that view better than a seasonal bellini coursing through your veins." - brant cox, sylvio martins
"Verdict: Come the next time someone else is paying for drinks. Splashy dining rooms and designer bucatini are popping up all over Beverly Hills this year, but Dante is the one making sugar babies go ballistic. That’s because this rooftop spot sits on the ninth floor of the Maybourne Hotel, where you can get views of the Hollywood Hills from the comfort of a blue velvet booth. Just like the original NYC location, Dante Beverly Hills has a cocktail menu with the breadth and depth of your typical wine list. You'll see sections dedicated to martinis, negronis, spritzes, agave spirits, and zero-proof cocktails. Most drinks cost over $20 and are very good if not a little precious (prepare for your bartenders to spray olive brine mist on the rim of your dirty martini or scorch green chilis for your spicy margarita). Still, the view is Dante's real draw. And you can skip right past the Italian dishes." - sylvio martins, brant cox, nicolas zhou
"Possibly the most stunning rooftop in Beverly Hills, this NYC import serves a reliable set of Italian American dishes that please a wide range of palates. Fennel and orange salad or wood-fired margherita pizzas give way to whole grilled branzino and steak frites. The outdoor tables with clear views of the Hollywood hills are the prime spots for lunch, though of course enjoying those seats depends on the weather." - Matthew Kang
