This Italian-Inspired Spot is Officially the Best Rooftop Bar in L.A.

Kate Amsbry April 5, 2025

It’s that time of year: The days are getting longer, the weather warmer and the likelihood higher that it’ll be months before we see rain again. So we thought it was the perfect opportunity to revisit our guide to L.A.’s best rooftop bars —and crown a new number one.
 
That honor now goes to Dante Beverly Hills, a ninth-floor rooftop at the Maybourne hotel with top-notch cocktails and dreamy views of the hills. The quality of the actual bar-going experience would crumble at most rooftops if you take the “rooftop” part out of the equation—but the drinks at Dante are so good that they stand up to L.A.’s best bars, period.
 
“The panoramic views are stunning, and while I’d still steer you towards Perch for a classic urban skyline, Dante absolutely smokes the competition if you’re after quality drinks and ambience,” says Time Out L.A.’s food and drink editor, Patricia Kelly Yeo.

The rooftop takes some of the essentials from its long-running New York originator—a lauded, Italian-inspired neighborhood spot—and adds some 90210 ritziness. The luxurious setting makes for an ideal backdrop regardless of what you order, but Yeo suggests you opt for one of the 10 equally-great iterations of a martini, as well as the signature “fluffy” orange juice Garibaldi and a few agave-based creations unique to the L.A. outpost.
 
On the logistics side, even though some of the hype has cooled since Dante’s 2023 opening, you’re absolutely going to want to make a reservation on weekends or around sunset. Expect to pay $19 to $30 per drink—a higher-than-average price, for sure, but a worthy expense for their quality and consistency.

You’ll find Dante Beverly Hills at 225 North Canon Drive in Beverly Hills. It’s open Monday through Saturday from 11am to midnight and Sunday from 11am to 11pm.
