As a renowned “power lunch” spot in Los Angeles, Cecconi’s has been a top destination for the city’s elite for decades. During my visit to the classic Italian eatery located on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, I was struck by the energy and sophistication of the patrons. The hostess shared an interesting tidbit with me, mentioning that patrons often forget their Gucci bags and iPads at the restaurant.
As I sampled three different dishes during my visit, it was clear that the food still lives up to the hype. The $36 pasta dish was delicious, but it was the wood-fired pizza that truly stood out to me. The perfectly cooked crust and fresh toppings made for an unforgettable meal.
In today’s hybrid world, where work and leisure are becoming increasingly blurred, power lunches are more important than ever. And with its long-standing legacy and reputation as a top destination for celebrities like Beyoncé and Prince Harry, Cecconi’s is certainly a prime spot for those looking to make an impression.
