About the restaurant

Guests dining in Beverly Hills enjoy sitting outside and Via Alloro is the place for them. This is the first restaurant in the area to offer more than 100 patio seats, which wrap around the building so you can see and be seen! Guests at Giacomino’s and Tanino’s restaurants include actors, actresses, politicians, sports stars, business people, neighbors and tourists…they have so many regular guests and everyone is treated like family! Outside seating at Via Alloro has a different atmosphere in each area too and inside there are 34 seats with an additional 20 seats in the lounge. Speaking about the lounge, from 7 flat screen TVs guests will be able to watch sports all the time from basketball, baseball, ice hockey, American and European Football. You will also be able to eat at the bar for lunch and dinner too.

Our dinner at Ca del Sole was very tasty and the service crew was great! Two items of note that were not good. There was a dog at the table two tables down. A Yorkie type small animal. This is a restaurant, not a kennel. People these days dress to go to dinner like they’re dressing to clean the garage. How “comfortable” do you need to be? Show a little class and respect for your fellow diners and reach beyond baggy shorts and a sloppy T shirt.
