Iconic New York aperitivo bar Dante is opening a third location at The Maybourne Beverly Hills hotel in Los Angeles, California. The bar is set to open on July 4, 2023 and will be their first location outside of New York City.
Dante Beverly Hills will be located on the recently renovated rooftop and include indoor and outdoor dining with a view of the pool. It will overlook the Los Angeles skyline and offer the bar’s signature aperitivo-style cocktails to pair with Italian and Mediterranean-inspired food.
“Los Angeles was our first taste of America, traveling here as kids from Australia,” said Linden Pride, principal at Dante. “We’ve always been inspired by California’s culture, lifestyle, and cuisine – the nuances of hyper-seasonal, local California produce. We believe Los Angeles is one of the great culinary centres of the world and we are excited to bring our shared sense of hospitality together with the Maybourne Hotel Group and grow the Dante brand in a fresh yet authentic way.”
The drinks menu will include their Garibaldi (Campari and fluffy orange juice); Seville Spritz (Tanqueray Flor de Sevilla, Dry Curaçao, Neroli, orange wine, orange bitters, vanilla, and Prosecco); Celery Paloma (blanco Tequila, green chartreuse, St Germaine, celery bitters, verjus, and lime); and Mediterranean Tonic (Gin Mare, Manzanilla, olive bitters, pinch of salt, San Pellegrino, and citrus tonic).
“There’s a magical, whimsical part to the Californian colour palette, almost a patina, that evolves throughout the day,” said creative director Hudson. You are surrounded by these luscious, or golden hued, pastels whilst on the rooftop. We wanted to pull those colours into the space and layered them with texture throughout.”
Dante Beverly Hills is located on the ninth floor rooftop at the Maybourne Beverly Hills Hotel at 225 North Canon Drive. It will be open daily from 11am-11pm (PDT), with $10 Martini Hour between 3pm and 5pm. The bar stays open until 12am.
