Mark Echeverria is the 4th generation operator of Musso and Frank Grill in Hollywood. Musso and Frank is part of Hollywood culture and history, having been a meeting place for movie executives, famous writers like Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams, rock stars like Keith Richards and countless movie stars.
Mark talks about how the restaurant almost closed after nearly 90 years and how he was tapped by his family to move from Alaska where he was running fishing tours, to come down to the Hollywood walk of fame and help pull the restaurant back from the brink of closing. He did just that all while maintaining its signature culture, nostalgia and service.
Mark tells Natalie all about the famous and colorful history of the restaurant, some of the stars who are open about their affinity for Musso’s and why their signature martini is so delicious.
