No matter how picky of an eater one may be, Beverly Hills will surely accommodate anyone’s culinary needs. South Beverly Drive is a typical lunch hotspot due its large concentration of high quality fast-food restaurants.
A favorite on the iconic street is Cabbage Patch, which caters to those looking for a lunch on the healthier side. Cabbage Patch is known for their arugula, which they seem to put in almost every one of their dishes. While they are known for their “green” menu items, they do serve one of the most mouthwatering burgers in Los Angeles. The burger has two buns which are lavished in butter, and then placed on the grill so they are warm and fluffy by the time it reaches the hungry consumer. The interior of the burger consists of a juicy patty which has melted Tillamook cheese drizzled on top, two pieces of applewood smoked bacon, and finally, the key to the one-of-a-kind burger, their arugula. While I am not typically a fan of arugula, I have to say, it makes the burger worthwhile.
Those who may not be as adventurous on the culinary side would love the burger at Burger Lounge. It is your stereotypical “American Burger” which consists of a patty, lettuce, tomato, and ketchup. What’s great about the burger is they really don’t try so hard to make it a good burger, they use the essentials and make the most of it. For a side, their crispy onion rings are to die for, but for those of you on a diet, I would avoid them.
Heading north, Canon Drive has restaurants for those who are just looking for a quick bite to eat, or those destined for a meal they won’t ever forget.
Xi’an, a traditional Chinese meal, which fosters a family style atmosphere, has many entrées to choose on, from their delicious orange chicken to the sizzling kung pao beef. My favorite, their minced lettuce cup, features minced chicken, which is then mixed with crunchy noodles, finally placed in a cool lettuce cup. I really enjoy the crunch combination between the noodles and the lettuce, and the chicken adds tons of flavor to the popular dish. The waiters make customers feel very comfortable, and I always leave the restaurant feeling extremely satisfied.
Moving west, built into Equinox, Oliver Café dishes up some pretty fantastic Italian food. I typically enjoy expanding my horizon, and try something new every time I go to a new restaurant, but when I go to Oliver, I only get one thing, their penne pasta with filet mignon mixed in. They use the juice from the cooked beef to add flavor to the pasta, and the filet just makes it all the merrier. The restaurant offers a wonderful outdoor seating patio for those who have been cooped up in the office all day and just want to enjoy the fresh sunshine.
The wide range of diversity in Beverly Hills provides opportunity for many restaurants to make their claim as the best restaurant in the city. No one will have to deprive themselves of food in Beverly Hills, as they truly have a dish for any type of eater.
