RESTAURANT REVIEW
Imagine a restaurant that serves a myriad of different types of small plates, ranging from traditional tapas to molecular gastronomic creations, located alongside a trendy hotel bar packed with hordes of people. That's the best way to describe this restaurant from José Andres, located in the SLS Hotel, where the combination of "the food, the space, the people is unlike anything you've seen in L.A. or likely anywhere else." While it is easy to like the classic fare like shrimps in garlic sauce, most of the comments were directed at the modern tapas Andres serves, like foie gras cotton candy, modern olives, miso linguini with smoked trout roe, tomato, lemon and chervil and Andres’ own take on a Philly Cheesesteak—air bread, cheddar, Wagyu beef.”
