I've now been to this location three times as well as the one in Miami Beach. This was probably my least memorable visit. It wasn't that anything was wrong but something didn't click this time around. Our waiter didn't seem as interested in suggesting a "plan of attck" on the menu or even to make helpful suggesitons. And maybe the... More

We were invited on a business dinner to dine here. It was chosen by one of the other guests who is serious about food, and he was definitely on the mark here. The food here is largely tapas style, and we were fortunate enough to be a larger group, so we could get a good sampling of their offerings. This... More

different vibe for different rooms. Perhaps a bit loud. Menu was creative and expansive. Dishes were clever and flavorful. Even the basic ones were very good. Moved to different room for dessert. If it is a Jose restaurant, GO!

It was our first night in LA & we were staying at the SLS - it could not have been better! Every dish we ordered was delicious and beautifully presented. One or two of the dishes were so good we had to order a second round. The service was excellent and our waiter offered some great recommendations. We thought the... More

We attended with a group of colleagues. 8 of us enjoyed a variety of items... the waiter was excellent, the food was interesting and diverse. We had a good time, but the bill was a bit of a shock. Be prepared for this total to be rather shocking!

We heard about Chef Jose Andres and couldn't wait to try his food at The Bazaar. Located within the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills, you are immediately struck by the decor. Different sections of the restaurant are separately decorated in a unique, modern style. Lots of glass and mirrors and a much bigger seating area than I expected. First, you're... More

When back in LA, a biochemist friend of mine invited me to dinner, and I figured what more interestingly appropriate thing for us to try than the molecular cuisine of a student of Ferran Adria, the mad scientist himself. So shortly after the opening of the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills, my friend and I took our seats at the... More
