Dinner
Our favorite local Italian eatery. There are more than a handful of fine Italian dining in Beverly Hills -- all worth their reputation. But for the price and quality of menu, this is our personal favorite. Enjoy the Risotto Salsicce with Barolo.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. LA is known for its highly regarded sushi. But although I enjoy many of our most famous establishments, my heart will always favor the original creations by one of LA's most original restaurateurs. Matsuhisa was, is and will always be the best experience in LA. Hidden inside a modest facade on restaurant row, and quaintly comfy inside the tightly fitted dining room, you'll enjoy some of the finest classics and creative platings at this staple enjoyed by tourists, celebrities and other power denizens alike.
