Funke is chef Evan Funke's showstopping tribute to regional Italian cooking, set inside a three-story 1930s Art Deco building in Beverly Hills. Diners watch pasta rolled by hand in a glass-walled lab before feasting on Cacio e Pepe, Agnolotti and a bone-in Florentine steak. Wood-fired pizzas and elegant cocktails complete the experience.
