Perched atop the iconic Beverly Hilton in the plush landscapes of Beverly Hills, Sant'olina is more than just a rooftop venue; it's an experience that transports you to the breezy coastlines of the Mediterranean, right in the heart of Los Angeles.
As soon as one steps onto Sant'olina's premises, the overwhelming allure of the Mediterranean is evident. Olive trees sway gently, ceramic pots brimming with lavender line the space, and rustic wooden furnishings evoke the feel of a seaside taverna in Santorini or a quaint café in coastal Spain. But, juxtaposed with this laid-back ambiance is the undeniable glamour of Beverly Hills. The view is breathtaking, showcasing the city's architectural marvels, swaying palm trees, and on a clear day, even the distant sparkle of the Pacific.
At the heart of Sant'olina's charm is its culinary offering. The menu is a tapestry of flavors, drawing inspiration from Lebanon, Israel, and other Mediterranean locales. Every dish, whether it's a mezze platter or a grilled delicacy, narrates a story of tradition, infused with contemporary touches suited to LA's palate.
And then there's the bar – a space where mixology meets Mediterranean magic. From wines sourced from sun-kissed vineyards to cocktails infused with herbs like rosemary and basil, every sip promises a journey to the shores of the azure Mediterranean sea.
Sant'olina isn't just about food and views. It's about the emotions it evokes. The soft glow of hanging lanterns, the gentle hum of conversations, the live acoustic music resonating with the chords of the Mediterranean - every element combines to create an atmosphere of relaxation and intimate luxury.
Moreover, its location atop the Beverly Hilton ensures that it's not just a local hangout but also a gathering spot for international travelers, celebrities, and those looking for a touch of Mediterranean charm in Beverly Hills.
In a city teeming with rooftop venues, Sant'olina stands out, not just for its location or offerings, but for the emotion it evokes. It reminds patrons of sunlit holidays, of lazy afternoons by the sea, and of meals that extend into the night. It's a slice of the Mediterranean, with a touch of Beverly Hills' glamour – a combination that's as rare as it is enchanting.
