Best Hotel Restaurants in Los Angeles | Eater LA
"Chef José Andrés, who first made his mark on Los Angeles at the Bazaar and continues to operate upscale Spanish restaurant San Laurel in Downtown’s Conrad (with eventual plans to open Bazaar Meat in the same hotel) has taken over the former Etta/Prima Donna in Culver City with his versatile, reasonably-priced Turkish and Greek-inflected restaurant Zaytinya. Originally from Washington D.C., the breezy, bright restaurant has since expanded to New York City and Miami with success, leading to a terrific cookbook published last year. Angelenos know their way around these flavors, given the Armenian, Persian, Lebanese, and Syrian establishments already here, Zaytinya should slot in nicely with wood-grilled dry-aged branzino sourced from Sherman Oaks’ the Joint Seafood, and a parade of mezze that are lovely when scooped up with the thin, fresh-baked pita bread. — Matthew Kang, lead editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest" - Rebecca Roland
