Anticipation and truffle oil hung in the air on Friday night as stars of the small screen arrived in the Hollywood Hills in black Teslas and Escalades to celebrate this year’s Emmy Awards.

The “Shogun” actor and producer Hiroyuki Sanada; Quinta Brunson, the creator of “Abbott Elementary”; and the “Baby Reindeer” star and creator Richard Gadd were among the nominees who walked the black carpet at the party, which was put on by The Hollywood Reporter and SAG-AFTRA at Stanley II, a sprawling, hillside mansion that has been listed for $38 million.

Overlooking the twinkling lights of Los Angeles, guests ate truffle burgers and fries from Shake Shack and drank Emmy-themed Glenfiddich cocktails named “City of Stars,” “Red Carpet Cocktail” and “The FYC” (shorthand for the “for your consideration” award campaigns).

While some partygoers grazed a banquet-size charcuterie board and relaxed on couches near the house’s massive television screens — which played a slide show of photos featuring this year’s nominees — others migrated to the dance floor in the nightclub downstairs.
