Dining room at The Belvedere, Beverly Hills, CAAt The Belvedere, step into the world of executive chef James Overbaugh (formerly of Château du Sureau in Oakhurst and Windsor Court Hotel) and feel as though you have been transported to a far-away exotic land where North African spicing, Japanese influences and Indian essences meet. The menu changes weekly, but signature specialties include oysters Overbaugh where the bivalves are baked and served with horseradish-parsnip purée and spinach-lemon cream. Another mainstay is the truffle macaroni and cheese, studded with black truffles and hen of the woods mushrooms and accented with Parmigiano-Reggiano. Pastry chef Romain Lenoir teases the taste buds with chocolate and caramel cake. Service is executed with topnotch flair. Be sure to pick the brain of the longtime sommelier, David Jones; the wine list is a treasure trove of French and American bottles, and it offers a growing selection of fine and premium wines by the glass (such as Dom Pérignon). Everything here adds up to an overall experience with an air of civility uncommon---but very welcome---to the casual Los Angeles culture.
