From 1941 to 1962, Romanoff\'s was located at 326 North Rodeo Drive, and had another location at 140 South Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. In 1951, it moved to a new location at 240 South Rodeo Drive.
Romanoff generally snubbed his clientele, and preferred to lunch with his dogs.
KCET\'s Hadley Meares writes of the restaurant, which used an elegant monogram consisting of a crown sitting over two capital letter \'R\'s back to back: \"The décor was masculine and clubby with comfortable booths, the dance floor well waxed, the cigarette girls lovely, and the waiters well-trained andJeeves-like.
While Romanoff\'s featured a typicalcountry club-style menu with items likeWaldorf salad,tomatoes stuffed with crab,filet mignon,frog legs,eggs Benedictand sausages on toast, the restaurant became known for their chocolate soufflés, which were served to each guest in an individual portion.Although Romanoff\'s restaurant is also known for popularizing the \"American version\" of the famous dessertStrawberries Romanoffit was actually created by Escoffierwhen he was the chef at theCarlton Hotelin London – where he had originally called it \"Strawberries Americaine Style\" - strawberries inGrand Marnier,blended into whipped cream and softened ice cream.
Noodles Romanoff originally appeared at Romanoff’s, back in the mid-1950s. It was later spun off at Stouffer’s Top of the Rock Restaurant in Chicago after Romanoff’s went out of business. After Stouffer’s closed that restaurant several years later, they brought their Noodles Romanoff to their newly formed frozen food grocery division.
