About Steak 48
Steak 48 sits at the corner of Wilshire and Roxbury. The kind of Beverly Hills address that telegraphs intent before your guest has even parked. The room is all dark leather, warm metal, and low candlelight, pitched at exactly the volume where private conversation stays private and business can be transacted without theatre.
The kitchen opened in 2022 as the Los Angeles anchor of the Oliver and Jeffrey Mastro family of restaurants, and it imports the formula that made their Chicago and Houston rooms reservation-only: USDA Prime domestic beef, highest-grade Japanese A5 Wagyu flown weekly from Kagoshima and Miyazaki, and a seafood program that reads like a daily auction sheet from the Pacific.
What sets the room apart from its peers is the cellar. Over 6,000 bottles deep, with serious California verticals, burgundies with provenance, and a by-the-glass program that lets a deal-closing round of drinks actually say something. The sommelier team knows when to recommend and when to recede. This is professional hospitality in service of professional outcomes.
Best Occasion Fit
Close a Deal. And Close It Correctly
Steak 48 is a contract-closing room in the most literal sense. The tables are spaced for privacy. The service is paced so courses arrive between points of negotiation rather than on top of them. And the food does the quiet work of signaling that you value your guest enough to bring them somewhere this serious. This is where Los Angeles closes the deals that don't make the trade press.

OpenTable releases seats 30 days in advance. For private dining and semi-private rooms, email the restaurant directly.

Weeknight seatings before 6:00 pm and after 9:00 pm are the easiest to secure on short notice.
Dress Code & Atmosphere
Jackets preferred for men at dinner. The room runs energetic but never rowdy. Sound rises with the hour but private tables keep their privacy. Expect finance, entertainment, and real-estate tables around you; read that as validation of the venue choice, not distraction.
The Experience
Open the meal with the seafood tower. It sets the tone, and it gives your table something to talk over while the deeper conversation opens up. Move to the Wagyu flight if your expense account allows it. A tasting across A5 grades is genuinely educational, not just performative. Otherwise, the bone-in ribeye is the tradesman's choice and the kitchen executes it with consistent precision.
Sides are generous and designed for sharing. The mac and cheese has achieved its own cult following; the truffle fries are better than the cliché. The dessert program is earnest rather than experimental. Cheesecake, chocolate cake, and an ice-cream sundae done without irony.
Service pacing respects the room's business intent. Courses arrive when tables are ready for them, not on a timer. The check arrives when requested, not before. This is what hospitality looks like when the restaurant understands why you chose it. Pair further research with our Beverly Hills city guide for additional business-dining options nearby.
