Know something we don't?

Times Description

SBE’s latest concept, Foxtail, has become one of L.A.’s hottest new destinations for the moneyed entertainment biz set (Ryan Seacrest and Sienna Miller are fans).  Located in the former Lobby space on Santa Monica Blvd (next to Dan Tana’s and the Troubadour), Foxtail serves both as a restaurant and supper club (there is a small dancing area and an outdoor smoking patio).

SBE partner Brent Bolthouse tells the Guide Foxtail is “smaller than Area, but bigger than Hyde [SBE owns both Area and Hyde].”  However, don’t think that Foxtail will emulate Hyde’s notorious door policy; Foxtail is more of a restaurant than a club, so gaining entry into the swank destination shouldn’t be as difficult as sneaking past velvet rope minders at Hyde or Area.  Bolthouse says the concept behind Foxtail is to “re-create the golden age of Hollywood where there was a place where the entertainment business could call their own.”  The color scheme is emerald green, copper, pink and silver with touches of brass throughout.

Look for some big names from the business side of Hollywood to haunt Foxtail this year (SBE already has several big names from the industry, including director Brett Ratner, NBC Entertainment Co-Chairman Ben Silverman, film producer Scott Stuber, and Endeavor’s Patrick Whitesell) on board who are ready to start wheeling and dealing over martinis at the supper club.

In Feburary previews, crowds were dazzled by the restaurant’s design, which Bolthouse describes as “’70s chic meets ‘20s art-nouveau.” A-list actors and the agents who love them (including Whitesell) will certainly be spending a lot of busy nights this year inside Foxtail’s second-floor hideaway; the supper club’s ultra-exclusive private club with a separate entrance and stunning attached smoking patio (featuring greenish copper-patina wallpaper and relief-like hanging brass sculptures).  Foxtail officially opened to the public Feb. 27.

UPDATE: Since Oct. 9, 2008, Foxtail has become more of a club than a restaurant.  SBE's "new" Foxtail will now be open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday until 2 a.m. each night.  Expect less tables and more room to roam (or vogue) at Foxtail.  The second floor lounge will still be the place to hang, and maintain exclusivity.  The ground floor may be easier to slip past the velvet rope, but still not as easy as other SBE clubs like Area or S Bar.  DJs will varry nightly.
