Well, finally. A full-on nightclub smack in the middle of the Westside. On the site of the old Trader Vic’s at the intersection of Wilshire and Santa Monica, Bar 210 (get it?–short for 90210 since it’s technically in the Beverly Hills city limits) and Plush have set up shop, offering an upscale dining and drinking alternative for those who prefer to party closer to home. A week’s worth of opening parties proved that the velvet rope is alive and well in this part of town. You just won’t trip over any crackheads on the way to your car in this ‘hood, but just like anywhere else, you’ll pay dearly for the privilege of having bottle service.
Bar 210 & Plush (at the Beverly Hilton) 9876 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills (310) 887-6000
