LO S A N G EL ES
Cal Mare is an homage to the coast of Italy and Southern California from chef/partner Adam Sobel in collaboration with Michael Mina and MINA Group. Located on the ground floor of the newly-redesigned Beverly Center in Los Angeles, the restaurant celebrates the best of coastal Italian cuisine while featuring California s bountiful ingredients. The menu highlights seafood from both the Mediterranean and Pacific Ocean, as well as fresh handmade pastas and brick oven pizzas. Cal, short for California, represents our sensibility, and Mare means sea in Italian. When combined as calmare, it means to soothe in Italian. Fortuitously, Cal Mare evokes the vibrant seaside elegance of Italy s Amalfi Coast, but also features a nod to the contemporary Southern California setting - sun-drenched soulfulness with style. The mission is to transport guests to a place of bliss and happiness through truly delicious food, creative drinks and an approachable and LOCATION 8500 Beverly Blvd, Suite 115 Ground Level, Beverly Center (off La Cienega Blvd.) Los Angeles, CA 90048 424 332 4595 CalMareRestaurant.com @CalMareRestaurant HOURS OF OPERATION HAPPY HOUR Daily 4:00p.m. - Close DINNER Monday - Thursday 5:30p.m. - 10:00p.m. Friday & Saturday 5:30p.m. - 10:00p.m. Sunday 5:00p.m. - 8:00p.m. BRUNCH Sunday 11:00a.m. - 3:00p.m. DETAILS convivial ambiance.
