The Bazaar by José Andrés (CLOSED)

Inside the sexy and playful SLS Hotel (owned by LA nightlife godfather Sam Nazarian), the Bazaar by José Andrés is a carnival of food and drink offerings that are as whimsical and sleek as the Philippe Starck–designed space. Grab a drink—expect martinis with olive foam and "salt air" margaritas—at the swanky Bar Centro or at the al fresco Bar Centro Terrace where guests can sip on single-malt Scotch and enjoy a stogie from the cigar selection. Of course, the real star is the well-known, Spanish chef's modern cooking. Indulge in an intimate chef's tasting menu inside the hidden dining room Saam or share small-plate tapas like "Philly cheesesteak" made with seared Wagyu beef atop "air bread" and uni and avocado buns. If you're in need of some retail therapy, stop into the Bazaar's Patisserie for grown-up confectionary or Regalo for Kiki de Montparnasse lingerie and Moss home furnishings.
