On March 16, the City of Beverly Hills ordered that all restaurants and retail food facilities within the jurisdiction were prohibited from serving food for consumption on premises, including through a self-serve, unwrapped buffet. In this uncertain time, there are still a number of local restaurants that are continuing to deliver food and some are even offering curbside pick-up for the first time. One Sunset Boulevard favorite has completely morphed into a new market concept while another nightlife and hospitality guru has decided to pivot at just the right time and launch a new venue for home delivery.
In an effort to continue supporting local restaurants and small businesses, here is a list of where you can still acquire your favorite meals in Beverly Hills and surrounding areas. And, the City will accommodate parking in front of restaurants to allow for easier access for “to-go” or curbside dining.
Curbside Pick-up is the New Drive-Through
Peninsula Hotel
The hotel is currently offering valet pick up for take-out meals. So, you can order your favorite charred Brussels sprout Caesar (with chicken or salmon) over the phone and pick it up at the valet by just driving through without parking or waiting. Other signature favorites to
go include flatbreads, Mary’s roast chicken, and breakfast from acai bowls to green juices. The hotel has even set up entire catering orders for dinner parties that also includes valet pick up.
Spago
While you might be missing your weekly Friday lunch at Spago, no need to miss the classic smoked salmon pizza and other iconic favorites. For the first time in the history of Wolfgang Puck’s famous eatery, Spago will be servicing curb-side pick-ups.
Il Pastaio
This neighborhood staple will be offering a reduced take-out menu with favorite Drago family dishes all week from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Take-out is also available from Piccolo Paradiso Ristorante and others in their portfolio.
Porta Via
This Canon Drive mainstay remains open for take-out, curbside included, and delivery through Postmates and Uber Eats. Additionally, the staff is able to make deliveries in the neighborhood.
Olivetta
You can still have Michael Fiorelli’s best pasta dishes delivered right to your car from 5:30 p.m. to midnight. Just preorder then give them a call on 310-307-3932 when you are outside.
Tesse
This Sunset Boulevard French café stunner has transformed into a marketplace where you can buy fresh fruits and veggies, bread, cheese and other treats from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, plus they have a wine shop and are even selling toilet paper. Bravo!

No contact delivery from DoorDash:
The popular delivery app is testing enhanced drop-off options for customers, including no contact delivery. If you prefer this method, or need to request one for health reasons, you can do so starting this week in the delivery instructions. Dashers can reach out to you through a call or text message when you place an order to request a no-contact delivery as well.
