"Super chef José Andrés operates outposts of The Bazaar across the country, but his D.C. opening is truly a homecoming for the restaurateur. The restaurant itself is located in a truly grand setting—it takes up a corner of the Waldorf Astoria's soaring atrium lobby, housed in D.C's historic Old Post Office Building, and the decor is equally opulent with plenty of marble, velvet, and Salvador Dali-inspired floral fabrics. The menu here is a literal book, with pages and pages of shareable options divided into sections from traditional Spanish tapas to a jamon bar or only-in-D.C. Bazaar offerings like an "Eisenhower Stew" with braised beef cheeks or a Crab Louie-inspired bite-size cone. You'll want to try a few of the chef's dramatic, trompe l'oeil dishes, like a finger-food take on Caesar salad." - Adele Chapin
