Pat's Cocktails A Mixology Bar / Pat's Cocktails - Season 3
Its first address was 501 Sunset Boulevard, under the original house-numbering system in use in Beverly Hills for the east-to-west streets. That numbering system was discarded in the late 1930s, and major streets like Sunset and Santa Monica Boulevards were given new numbers that conformed to the county-wide system. East-to-west streets that ran in Beverly Hills only, like Lexington Road, kept their original numbers. Nonetheless, Green sold the land to Al and Charles Christie.
RAW BAR
The following year, they sold their Waverly estate to actor Richard Barthelmess, who purchased the mansion so that he could live next door to his long-time friend William Powell on Hillcrest Road. In the residential neighborhoods of Beverly Hills, change is the one constant. Houses—regardless of their architectural pedigree or historical value—are frequently remodeled, enlarged, or demolished. The grand showplaces of earlier eras are routinely razed and replaced by newer and ever-grander showplaces. In this post, I’ll list every single California Bar Rescue episode and share an update for each bar, including whether or not it’s still open in 2024.

The original late ’70s details are evident under the clutter, touches of knobby wood, a few original burgundy vinyl booths, alongside those added later, and brick work. Green need not have worried that the Christie mansion would detract from its Sunset Boulevard setting. The two brothers soared way past the $30,000 per house minimum cost limit. Immediately after the 1923 land sale, workers set about grading the site and landscaping the grounds. By late 1925, “actual building operations” had commenced on the mansion, which was designed by Leland F. Fuller.

Rodeo Land & Water Company had just opened up Sunset Boulevard east of Alpine Drive to development, so it had land to sell. The Christies certainly had the money Rodeo Land & Water Company put restrictions on the size and quality of the house that could be built on the site. According to the purchase terms, no more than two residences and “customary out-buildings, including a private stable or private garage” could be constructed, and each had to be valued at no less than the then-princely sum of $30,000 each. The deed also included the standard racial restrictions of the time. And if you have any thoughts about this list or the California bars, you can use the comments section below.
The Aging Room at Cirivello’s / Cirivello's Bar - Season 4
As of 2024, Jon Taffer has visited 50 bars in California, most of which are focused in Los Angeles or San Francisco. At Rasselbock, we invite you to embark on a culinary journey that celebrates the heart of German cuisine, all in a contemporary setting.

Brannan Manor / SacTown Sports Bar - Season 7
The five acre grounds included a clubhouse, swimming pool, and a luxury dog kennel so large that it required a building permit from the City of Beverly Hills. As you might know, us Germans take our beer very serious and it plays a major role in our culture. In certain parts of the country beer is even considered 'food'. All German beers must be brewed according to our 'Reinheitsgebot' (purity law) that permits only water, hops and malts as ingredients. At Rasselbock we carry 35 German & Belgian beers and are regularly introducing seasonal and special styles.
Here, a grand Tudor-style mansion stands hundreds of feet back from Sunset Boulevard on a gently sloping grassy lawn at the northwest corner of Hillcrest Road. Fast food taco stand was opened by Manuel and Adeline Portillo in 1972. With some built-in stools around the perimeter and a red, white and blue striped awning, this divey little hut is a neighborhood favorite.
Par Bar / Pepe's Mexican Restaurant & Cantina - Season 7
Note – the stats above include bars a bit outside the city limits. For example, I’m including the the Laguna Niguel episodes in the Los Angeles tally , just to simplify things. Rasselbock, Kitchen & Beer Garden is located in the beautiful Mar Vista neighborhood in Los Angeles. Rasselbock is a German restaurant and pub specializing in German food with a modern twist and freshly tapped German and Belgian beers.

They released dozens of films, including some of the first talkies. The Christie brothers—Al and Charles—were authentic Hollywood pioneers. In 1909, Al Christie entered filmmaking, working for David Horsley’s Centaur Film Company in Bayonne, New Jersey. Two years later, lured by Southern California’s year-round sunny weather, Horsley and his company members, including Al Christie, moved to Los Angeles.
A mural is painted on the side honoring founder Adeline, who passed away in 2010. Throughout all the mayhem of the Karl-McDonald marriage—he purchased the house after their second marriage in 1954—Waverly escaped unscathed. Subsequent owners, including talent agent Arthur Lyons who represented Jack Benny, Joan Crawford, and Lucille Ball, among others, respected the mansion’s Tudor style. Neither did the owners sell off any portion of the sweeping five-acre grounds, which had happened with so many other nearby estates after World War II.
At one time, Waverly was easily visible from Sunset Boulevard. The Waverly mansion totaled just over 12,000 square feet—which was a big house even by Beverly Hills standards. But it had to be large, and not just to make a statement to the world about the Christie brothers’ success. Waverly was a family compound whose residents included Al and his wife, Shirley; Charles, who never married; their sister, Anne; and their mother, Mary. Christie comedies and the Christie brothers were a smashing success in the 1920s.
