Los Angeles Luminaries Attend the Launch of New Hollywood Hotspot RivaBella

RivaBella, the latest restaurant courtesy of the Innovative Dining Group, opened its doors to an elite LA crowd on Thursday evening.

Rick Caruso, Samuel L. Jackson, Kevin Connelly, Jerry Ferrera, Sela Ward, Rosanna Arquette, Chris Noth, Dr. Dre, Ken Paves, Cameron Silver and Mayor Villaraigosa were among the notable attendees.

Chef-partner Angelini Osteria now serves up dishes include housemade saffron tagliatelle and prosciutto ragu; squid ink crab ravioli with sea beans and lobster sea urchin sauce; crostino with chicken liver pate and marinated cannellini beans; and grilled cuttlefish salad with arugula and pomegranate.

Studio Collective designed the restaurant, which includes a wine cave and 2,800-square-foot outdoor dining area.

The Tuscan farmhouse-inspired eatery from the group who created Sushi Roku and BOA is located at 9201 Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood.
