Hewitt is a concert promoter who works with bands like U2, Radiohead, The Rolling Stones and The Police, to name a few, so expect paparazzi outside the restaurant waiting for a photo op of celebrities post-dinner.
Hewitt has owned Il Sole since 2005 along with Arnold Steifel, also in the Industry. He is also the proud owner of the new restaurant Luau in Beverly Hills.

Last night, during Election Night, I was very lucky to meet Lord Howard Posener. Howard is a “Master Magician By Royal Appointment”. Yes, ”Royal”, because he is Prince Charles’ private magician. Howard’s card tricks made him famous, and he has performed them for presidents, celebrities and audiences all over the world.
