In Short – A colorful "Garlic Goes Hollywood" motif permeates this swanky bar and restaurant on La Cienega's Restaurant Row. Usually packed with industry types and families who don't mind having "stinky" celebrations, most folks start with Bagna calda--spreadable cloves in butter, served in a skillet, with warm rolls. Entree options include garlic-infused game, seafood and house-specialty prime rib, with garlic mashed potatoes on the side. For dessert, garlic ice cream (yes, that's right) completes the clove-friendly theme. There's also tiramisu, one of the menu's only garlic-free…
Can't get enough!

If you love garlic, then you'll love the stinking rose. They have their garlic mixture on the table to have with bread and I think our group of 4 ate it all! Everything was so good, but be warned, don't even think about going to a bar or club afterwards. Just go home :)
- Pros: Garlic, garlic, garlic
- Cons: Can't go out afterwards
Good Food Poor Service

A group of us went for my husbands birthday and we had to ask for a second bottle of wine. The server did not follow-up after the food was delivered, and he never told us that we could not make separate checks.
- Pros: Yummy bread, bread dip, meat, veggies
- Cons: Service
The relish (garlic/pesto) is killer

My wife and son loved their slab-o-prime rib. My 40 clove chicken was better then great. This is our third trip, 60 miles to Beverly Hills, just for the Stinking Rose and we'll do it again and we will take friends.
Since we have all worked at the Garlic Festival several times, we have a great affinity for garlic and the Stinking Rose.
Try the 40 clove chicken!!!
- Pros: Eclectic, quiet, felt like home
- Cons: To far from home!!
