Want to party like a Persian when you're in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills? In anticipation of the Nov. 5 third season premiere of Bravo's Shahs of Sunset, Us Weekly asked cast members Lilly Ghalichi and Mike Shouhed to share some of the hottest places to party, dine and be pampered in their California hometowns.
Mike's Pick: L.A. Lakers games at the Staples Center or Dodgers games at Dodger Stadium
Why He Loves It: "I wouldn't be a true Angeleno unless I showed some love for our home teams! Nothing beats Lakers playoffs or a sunset at Dodger Stadium," explains the Shahs star. "If you see me in the VIP booth, be sure and say hi!" (Staples Center, 1111 S Figueroa St., L.A.; Dodger Stadium, 1000 Elysian Park Ave., L.A.)
Lilly's Pick: il Pastaio Restaurant
Why She Loves It: "Il Pastaio is located in the heart of Beverly Hills on Canon drive. The majority of the restaurant offers outdoor seating, which is perfect for our beautiful SoCal weather. The food is incredible, and the staff is always friendly," she tells Us. "When I'm there, it feels like home. Once you are there, try the Angolotti!" (400 N Canon Dr., Beverly Hills)
Mike's Pick: Sound
Why He Loves It: "This is my new favorite nightclub. Amazing sound system!" he says. "My lady loves it here, too. L.A. girls know how to dance!" (1642 North Las Palmas Ave., Hollywood)
Lilly's Pick: Pilates Plus West Hollywood
Why She Loves It: "My favorite place to get fit is Pilates Plus West Hollywood by Carrie Lagree. The studio is clean, and the classes are intense, not to mention they carry all new reformers," explains Ghalichi. "Pilates is low impact, and it creates long, lean muscles rather than bulking you up. My class is always filled with models, so it's clearly working! If you ever find yourself there, try Glenn's class — you won't regret it." (8500 Melrose Ave., No. 104, West Hollywood)
Mike's Pick: Boa
Why He Loves It: "The best steakhouse in town! There's no classier place to take your lady out to wine and dine. She'll definitely show her appreciation," Shouhed tells Us of the swanky eatery. (9200 W. Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood)
Lilly's Pick: Lift MD Aesthetic
Why She Loves It: "My favorite spot to rejuvenate is Lift MD run by plastic surgeon Dr. Garo Kassabian. Once a month I treat myself to a facial there. They always have the latest and greatest products and techniques that keep my skin glowing," the Shahs star says. "The office is a very chic, friendly environment, and the staff is super accommodating. They will order you anything from lunch to champagne to help make your experience the best!" (436 N Bedford Dr. #301, Beverly Hills)
