A romantic night in Beverly Hills

Q: What's the best romantic restaurant in Beverly Hills for a date?

Our top pick is A.O.C., rated 4.8 out of 5. The Garden at The Penthouse at Mastro's Steakhouse Beverly Hills and Dante Beverly Hills round out the top 3.

Low light, a good table, and nowhere to be afterwards.

12 spots · Jump to the list

The restaurant is still the date most people start with, and the right one does most of the work: a room that's quiet enough to talk, light low enough to relax, a table you're not hurried off. Every restaurant here was chosen for that feeling rather than for the food alone — though the food is good. Book ahead for a weekend, ask for a corner or window table when you do, and leave the rest of the evening open.

This guide ranks 12 romantic restaurants in Beverly Hills. Editors' picks come first, then the rest by rating, and the plans below build a whole evening around the best of them.
