Vibrato
2930 N Beverly Glen Circle

2930 beverly glen circle at beverly glen. +1 310-474-9400. (http://www.vibratogrillja...). dynamic fusion of steakhouse and jazz club from music legend herb alpert makes for a night of great cuisine and musical entertainment. the expansive supper club-like dining room is intimate and bold in design and color with beautiful paintings adorning the walls. the menu is impressive, with an array of modern american fare. the bar draws an eclectic gathering of jazz lovers, socialites and trendy nighthawks. this is bel-air after all. situated almost out of sight in a classy strip mall at the top of beverly glen, vibratto retains a certain, "in-the-know" status. but it’s well worth the discovery.
