Dining like Royalty: Melrose Avenue’s Cecconi’s and its Impressive Fare

West Hollywood’s Melrose Avenue is home to Cecconi’s, a renowned Italian eatery that continues to maintain its reputation as a top destination for power lunches. The restaurant, frequented by celebrities like Beyoncé and Prince Harry, has a long-standing legacy. However, the question remains: does the food still live up to the hype?

During my recent visit to Cecconi’s, I was able to sample three different dishes. While the $36 pasta was impressive, it was the wood-fired pizza that truly stood out to me. It was a refreshing change from traditional Italian cuisine and provided a unique dining experience.

In today’s hybrid world, the traditional concept of a “power lunch” is primed for a resurgence. With its prime location and rich history, Cecconi’s continues to be a sought-after destination for those looking for an exclusive dining experience. The hostess shared an interesting tidbit with me during my visit – patrons often forget their Gucci bags and iPads at the restaurant!
