SPOTLIGHT LA: LET’S GET DIRTY (in Beverly Hills)



As the queen of dirty martinis, I've dedicated considerable time to testing and savoring dirty martinis around Beverly Hills. In my expert opinion, the key to a perfect dirty martini lies in the vermouth. While I consistently request Tito’s for the vodka, I’ve found that the vermouth significantly shapes the overall flavor — along with the ratio of ingredients — even when I make my own dirty martinis at home.


Here is my top three dirty m countdown:


3. Wally’s Beverly Hills: Wally’s offers a sophisticated and well-balanced dirty martini. The flavor is enhanced by a subtle depth and complexity, and the atmosphere at Wally’s, with its elegant and relaxed vibe, makes it a perfect spot to enjoy this expertly crafted martini.


2. Dante: Located on the 9th floor of the Maybourne Beverly Hills, Dante’s dirty martini stands out with its unique blend of flavors and their house-made olive brine, which adds an extra layer of richness to the drink. This martini is garnished with large, juicy olives that provide a delightful burst of flavor with each sip, and three drops of olive oil. Dante’s sophisticated setting and attentive service make the experience even more enjoyable.




1. The Beverly Wilshire Hotel: The Wilshire tops my list with its exceptional dirty martini. The vermouth they use is perfectly balanced, providing a smooth and rich flavor that harmonizes beautifully with the Tito’s vodka and olive brine. Each sip is a delightful mix of salty and savory, making it a truly memorable experience. The chic and stylish ambiance of The Wilshire adds to the overall allure, making it my ultimate favorite spot for a dirty martini in Beverly Hills. Sit outside at golden hour, and enjoy the perfect drink.


So, if you’re looking to indulge in the best dirty martinis Beverly Hills has to offer, these three spots should be at the top of your list. Cheers to getting dirty and discovering your new favorite martini!
