Honor Bar

"Attached to the behemoth (and always crowded) South Beverly Grill, The Honor Bar is a spot for us normies who can’t disappear into a three-martini lunch any day of the week. This sibling concept serves convenient to-go sandwiches for anyone in a pinch, but, like its busier neighbor, The Honor Bar is great for unwinding, too. The shortened bar menu still manages to have something for everybody, from sushi to kale salad to a juicy burger, so bring a friend, date, or just yourself to enjoy a cocktail and the clubhouse ambiance." - sylvio martins, brant cox

"Attached to South Beverly Grill, this all-day bar is our favorite place in Beverly Hills to grab a quiet drink at lunch and pretend we’re wearing a lot more jewelry than we actually are. Sure, this place is part of the aggressively corporate Hillstone empire, but the sleek, dimly lit space feels entirely separate, like you just stumbled into the back bar of a fancy hotel in Tribeca. There are a few tables going along the wall, but sitting at the long wrap-around bar is where you want to be. The bartenders are chatty, the martinis are strong, the burger is one of the best in the neighborhood. " - brant cox

"We used to hesitate whenever a friend would suggest a Hillstone restaurant, because, well, there are multiple locations across 11 states, and all of them are kind of the same. But Honor Bar feels a bit different. Attached to South Beverly Grill (another Hillstone restaurant), this bar was cleverly built out to serve to-go sandwiches to all the normal people who can’t spend two hours at lunch. Snag a perfectly made martini at the bar, then order the chicken sandwich or classic burger—you won’t find a better one in Beverly Hills.

"It’s 10:30am and your boss has already used up his passive-aggressive quota for the day. Break early for lunch and head to Honor Bar. Attached to South Beverly Grill, this all-day bar is our favorite place in Beverly Hills to grab a quiet drink and mumble witty hypothetical comebacks in our head. Sure, this place is part of the aggressively corporate Hillstone empire, but the sleek, dimly-lit space feels entirely separate, like you just stumbled into the back bar of a fancy hotel in Tribeca. The martinis are strong, the fries are crunchy, and the burger is one of the best in the neighborhood. " - brant cox

"Attached to the huge and always crowded South Beverly Grill, Honor Bar is the more casual option next door. Nothing off the sandwich menu is over $15, which is noteworthy because this is a Hillstone restaurant and nobody knows how to make a more crowd-pleasing sandwich than these guys. If you get anything other than the crispy chicken sandwich or the burger, you’ll likely regret your order." - brant cox
