Beso Restaurant
6350 Hollywood Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90028
Beso is a desired location for a romantic, eclectic, contemporary dining experience. Our menu is a fusion of classic steakhouse and authentic Latin dishes. The dining room features wrap-around booths and overstuffed chairs in front of an open kitchen with a white oak wood burning oven. You can listen to the baby grand piano at our main bar with the sounds of contemporary and current hits as you enjoy cocktails made from muddled fruit, unique tequilas, sangria, and an extensive wine list. Finish the evening upstairs in the newly remodeled “Estate Room”, previously known as Kiss lounge, where you feel as though you are on an outside patio under the moon light and stars. The olive trees are lit by candle lanterns and the ultimate Hollywood A-list nightlife dances the night away from sounds by the hottest DJ’s.
