In the mood for dinner in Beverly Hills? And why not? The choices are exquisite and many! Whether you live outside of Southern California or right here, a dinner in Beverly Hills (for most of us) is a special event. Even in today's recession Beverly Hills maintains its status as "the top of the world". It is renowned for its spectacular mansions, its famous residents, lavish lifestyle and last but not least, superb shopping along Rodeo Drive and within a walking distance of it.

Having dinner in Beverly Hills confirms that you've arrived. It is about rubbing elbows with the rich and famous of the world. Maybe not all of us are part of the world's elite but many want to - and do - celebrate special occasions and / or life's milestones with a dinner in Beverly Hills to make them more significant and memorable. (How many marriage proposals were successful because of the glitz accompanying a dinner in Beverly Hills?)

Since our expectations are so high, we don't think of a dinner in Beverly Hills as "just" a meal. The expectations include spectacular interior, distinctive ambience, fine company, black tie attire, impeccable service and finally, an exquisite meal. With such high expectations, the perfect dinner in Beverly Hills has to include research, planning and preparation.

The planning is most often a matter of a special occasion: a birthday, wedding anniversary, etc. The preparations surely include some shopping to spiff up the "old" wardrobe, not to mention shoes. They might include even more drastic measures for ladies: I've heard of a rush visit to a dentist for some teeth bleaching, an occasional Botox story, and - no matter what - a visit to a beauty salon is obligatory. While the ladies suffer for beauty, it is the responsibility of the gentlemen to do research and make the all important dinner reservation.

Dinner in Beverly Hills offers many options in terms of ambience and cuisine. Among the older and more traditional Beverly Hills restaurants are such establishments as Spago, Maestro, Villa Blanca, Lawry's Prime Rib (with the old world atmosphere of a cozy Tudor inn), La Scala, McCormick & Schmick's (which specializes in seafood) and Ruth Steakhouse. Each of them has its own unique atmosphere, original interior design, fine service and mostly traditional gourmet dishes; perhaps with the exception of Spago, currently owned by Wolfgang Puck, which serves innovative American cuisine with European and Asian influences with such dishes as salmon and creme fraiche pizza.

Among the more edgy Beverly Hills restaurants are Mr. Chow (serving Chinese cuisine classics and today's hits. Top entrees include green prawns marinated in a spinach dressing and sautéed with red peppers and cashews as well as a grilled filet mignon with a side of baby asparagus), Bossa Nova (Brazilian restaurant), Crustacean (Asian-inspired seafood) and Nic's and The Martini Lounge (Contemporary American-California cuisine served in artistic and intimate atmosphere), Fogo de Chao (an authentic Brazilian steakhouse) and Stinking Rose named after the garlic-rich foods it serves.

Each of them has its own unique funk factor and the spectrum of cuisine ranges from a great steak to sushi and beyond.

Of course, in addition to the high profile Beverly Hills restaurants frequented by Hollywood's A-listers, there are many more casual eateries. Among attention-worthy ethnic restaurants in Beverly Hills are:

Frida Mexican Cuisine which "offers its guests not only a one of a kind gastronomical experience but also a treat for the eyes. You will find an authentic Mexican restaurant with a warm and elegant environment. The interior is filled with vibrant murals, glowing candles and decorative folk art brought directly form different regions in Mexico."

Coupa Café which "is an urban oasis, a lively Venezuelan restaurant featuring a completely new style of international dining which combines the best of Venezuelan dishes with the philosophy of the modern slow food movement promoting the use of organic and fair trade ingredients. Coupa Cafe is the only restaurant in the world outside Venezuela where you can enjoy the nation’s shade grown, handpicked, patio sun-dried, super fair trade organic single estate Arabica coffee beans roasted in small batches, along with international sweet and savory delights".
