Catering:

The Bistro and Bistro Garden in Beverly Hills were THE celebrity restaurants from the 1960's through the mid-1990's. Now, that legacy carries over to the Bistro Garden at Coldwater and to the Bistro Garden Catering & Banquet Division.

The Bistro Garden offers a wide range of facilities for parties, from the simple to the extraordinary. The private Fireside Room can accommodate smaller events for up to 100 people, or it can open up to the dining room, creating a space large enough for up to 350 people. Arrangements can also be made for off site parties and events.
