Established in Hollywood in 1981 by Tom Rolla, erstwhile Broadway “gypsy,” dance coach, and chef, The Gardenia (named to honor his beloved Italian grandmother and the signature flowers she wore when he accompanied her to the opera as a youth,) has since become the “granddaddy” of supper clubs, now the oldest continuously-running such venue in the United States.
