Gucci Osteria

At the intersection of fine dining and fashion lies Beverly Hills’ Gucci Osteria, a shiny new Italian restaurant created with guidance from world-famous chef Massimo Bottura, who runs the original in Florence (which also has one Michelin star). Sitting above Rodeo Drive, with a view of the shoppers and luxury cars down below, a meal here by head chef Mattia Agazzi is the epitome of opulence and excess. Whether you’re ordering á la carte or partaking in the $150 per person tasting menu, expect what Michelin calls a “whimsical and grounded” take on modern Italian cuisine. Incorporating uniquely California ingredients like Santa Barbara uni–mixed at Osteria with housemade egg pasta and guanciale-style calamari–and Monterey seaweed, Agazzi’s food combines with a beautifully designed indoor-outdoor dining room to produce a refined, Rodeo Drive-style dining experience.
