Longtime L.A. chef and restaurateur Larry Nicola's little Beverly Hills creation is cozy, hip and actually has some super food, whether for snacking or making a full meal. Couple that with the martini menu featuring 80 varieties and live jazz on weekends and selected weeknights, and you have a stylish way to relax in the lap of luxury. The restaurant's glass-ensconced vodka freezer is also the perfect place for friends to share a bottle of high-end vodka with some caviar.

It's time to raise a toast at Beverly Hills' favorite neighborhood martini bar and celeb hangout.

In Short
Nevermind those celebrity roast infomercials that promise to bring back the good ol' days of the Rat Pack when smoking was cool and wearing a suit all day was considered casual. The spirit of Dean Martin lives on right here at this Beverly Hills joint where the martinis flow just as freely as the conversations. A small couch-lined area plays host to the nightly happy hour and the occasional jazz band, while an ascending walkway leads to a more formal dining room with semi-circular booths and tabletop seating. A play on classic steakhouse cuisine, restaurateur (and host with the most) Larry Nicola offers everything from meaty standards like miso-crusted prime ribeye with wasabi butter to lighter fare like grilled Scottish salmon dressed in figs and apples. Of course, no visit would be complete without a visit to the VodBox, an exhibition walk-in freezer where guests can put on a faux fur and raise a glass from one of the more than 80 varieties of vodka. Oh, and don't miss the Dean Martin shrine. Seriously. Told you his spirit lives on.
