Baldi 9850 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills The Hotel Lobbies Where Hollywood Takes Meetings During AFM At the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, chef Edo Baldi gives the steakhouse an Italian accent, cooking beef and wagyu over an olive wood-fired grill. Don’t let the steaks distract from sweet corn tortellini with mascarpone and truffle butter, or the pancake soufflé for two. Terracotta tones and olive trees warm the restaurant. For casual meet-ups, Bar Baldi pairs thin-crust pizza with beverage director Jim Kearns’ limoncello-laced spritz. Birdie G’s 2025 Avenue of the Stars, Los Angeles Moving from Santa Monica into the former Lumière space, chef Jeremy Fox’s Birdie G’s brings its family-inspired cooking directly to Century City. Matzo ball soup, the Pickle Chick cutlet and rose petal pie join koji-aged steaks, handmade pastas and California vegetables. EDG’s design draws on midcentury supper clubs, with banquettes and expanded patio seating. The planned breakfast-through-dinner format covers the working day; martinis and Manhattans take care of happy hour and beyond. Bad Roman 267 N. Canon Drive, Suite A7, Beverly Hills The former Palm steakhouse has a new cast of characters: a boar sculpture, greyhound statues and snake door handles. Quality Branded’s Bad Roman fills green velvet banquettes
