In Short – Inside the Luxe Hotel's sleek dining room (located next door to Michael Kors and across the street from Fendi), executive chef Matthew Gladstone has returned to the world of upscale cuisine after a short stint at sports bar Happy Ending in Hollywood. Gladstone's menu provides a gastronomic journey around the world with dishes including herbes de Provence roasted chicken breast, ancho-spiced Chilean seabass with plantains and mole sauce, and pepper-seared rare ahi tuna with edamame and quinoa primavera.

Patso!

My wife and daughter and I stay here from Italy and delight to find an Italo-American Chef Luigi, basically he works the place, like they will in Italy. LoPresti greets our table and we see he does this with every other table in the restaurant cafe, he even picks up plates, serves the food and is amicable, funny guy speaking in a good authentic accent from Sicily or Naples we guess by the name. We are delighted with simple Bistecca con Friti and salad. We stayed and again Chef appeared smiling with cookies from Italy. Wonderful experience to dine, but on Monday the 1st, we see he is no longer there...Interesante ! So my stars are for the Chef but not for the staff who leave the Chef to do everything in the place!
- Pros: Hands-on dedicated Chef
- Cons: Slow Service, unprofessional waitstaff

This last Saturday, my wife and I were walking around Beverly Hills and were lucky enough to find Cafe' Rodeo at The Luxe Hotel where we landed for a lesson in world class grazing. Gorgeous ambiance, delicious artfully prepared fusion cuisine, lovely attentive wait staff and reasonable prices do not seem possible on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills but they are a reality. We started with a glass of Shramsberg rose and the cheeseplate, a stunning thoughtful combination of 3 cheese selections with artisan breads, gooseberries, figs and balsamic syrup - one of the best platters I've ever had. We then moved onto a glass of their recommended Savignon Blanc and a plethora of exotic tapas: duck quesadillas, crispy lamb spring rolls, filet mignon sliders and tuna tartare served with seaweed tempura crispies (breathtaking). I seriously could go on for hours about this food - it was that luscious, wonderful and exotic and Matthew Gladstone is a rarity in the world of fine dining and a star the culinary stratosphere.
