The Verdict
THE GRILL ON THE ALLEY has been operating on Dayton Way in Beverly Hills since 1984 — the American grill institution whose dark wood booths and classic cobb salad communicate four decades of entertainment and media industry power lunch culture at its most reliably authoritative available Beverly Hills address. The cobb salad programme whose specific preparation communicates the accumulated knowledge of what the American grill tradition's most beloved available single salad requires; the New York steak and classic grill menu whose execution communicates four decades of daily refinement; and the Dayton Way Beverly Hills setting whose proximity to the studios and agencies creates the most commercially loaded available LA business lunch context.
