One of the most unique and delicious meals i've ever had. We sat at the Chefs table so we enjoyed a culinary lesson watching the amazing chefs work on their artistic dishes. Such a friendly staff! A++

The Fois Gras Floating Island: a really good hot mushroom soup (with a deliciously fatty hint of goose liver) topped with cold corn espuma (that’s fancy molecular gastronomy talk for foam, FYI). Read more

My favorite was the Ahi ceviche wrapped with avocado! Get more seafood tapas than meaty tapas! + funky display - chicken croquette in a plastic shoe.

Jose Andres’ Beverly Hills restaurant is knee deep in truffle season. The restaurant is currently shaving marbled fungi for a multi-course tasting menu. Featured dishes include “white bread toast.” Read more

We had the Capresé salad, Asparagus rice, Philly cheesesteak sandwich, Chicken croquettes and Tuna Avocado and they were absolutely delicious. If you were 2 people, order 7 to 8 dishes.

If mom and dad consider themselves foodies, then Jose Andres' modernist tapas restaurant is the place to go after wandering Rodeo Boulevard and exploring the land of plenty known as Beverly Hills. Read more

Considered a culinary fantasy land that rocketed LA upwards in the fine dining game. Check out the "cocktail bar stocked with liquid nitrogen, and a flashy patisserie." -Fodors on TripExpert Read more

Don't miss the Philly "Cheesesteak" or the old & new olives"; best olives I've EVER had. Can't go wrong with anything you order. Stay for dessert too; it's Willy Wonka meets Alice in Wonderland.

It was my favorite restaurant until the foie ban. I miss the foie lollipop & sliders. Cocktails are fun. Always a great time here.

This is the best bargain on the DineLA slate. It's a culinary Disneyland. For example: This is cotton candy foie gras. The liver is in the center.

The caprese salad and the philly cheesestakes are a must! No doubt! The mushroom risotto with truffles is also amazing! In drinks: The nitrogen cipirinha! And desserts; "Pan con chocolate" is amazing!

Been here 10+ times
Ask the bartenders for something off the menu.I prefer the Bella Fresca or Penecilin- sounds weird but it's a lemony delight! As far as food goes, the Caprese is to die for and very unusual.

The decor is all Alice in Wonderland on LSD, but the bunuelos de bacalao are godly, as is the ceviche avocado roll. Plus: don't miss the olives, which come from a recipe from El Bulli.

My aunt Shalese says, "For high tech food/cocktails (liquid nitrogen, sodium alginate, with tools like syringe, etc.)" Some may find it too modern and too "Hollywood". "For me it was just fun."

The carts aren't limited to booze; they also serve caviar cones from carts, and back before foie gras became a crime, they also used to do cotton candy foie gras, spinning sugar while turning heads. Read more

MUST go to place for a foodie in LA. Jose Andres (the chef) was featured on 60 Minutes last year; it is pricy though. Philly Cheesesteak & the beet salad are must haves.
