Xiquet is a charming modern Spanish restaurant where exquisite tasting menus and exceptional wine pairings create an unforgettable fine dining experience.
"Chef Danny Lledó’s gastronomical adventure in Glover Park earned him both a Michelin star and AAA’s Five Diamond designation. The tasting menu is cooked within view of diners over an open, wood-burning flame or a smoker and ends with after-dinner delights in their elegant mezzanine lounge. The experience costs $250 per person (or discounted to $195 during the week) with an option to add $195 for a standard wine pairing or $345 for Xiquet’s premium beverage service. Reservations on OpenTable." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
"Chef Danny Lledó’s hometown of Denía in the Valencian coast of Spain is the foundation of a 10-course tasting menu (plus small dessert bites) showcasing his award-winning paella and other regional specialties that come from a wood-fired kitchen enclosed in glass. An impressive Mediterranean wine list is also not to be missed. Lledó recently opened an a la carte format sister restaurant, El Taller del Xiquet, just below the tasting menu spot." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
"El Taller del Xiquet, the latest project from chef Danny Lledó, will welcome its first guests later this month with a bustling cheese cart, inventive paellas, and unctuous desserts — all served in an a la carte format. It will serve almost as the research and development arm of its more formal sibling restaurant located right upstairs, Xiquet. El Taller takes over the ground-floor space formerly occupied by Slate Wine Bar. It offers guests freedom of choice in their dining experience and features dishes like sea bass gravlax and Fideuà de Gandia. The venue, intimate with just 14 seats, allows Lledó to highlight Spanish and Valencian culinary traditions while evolving the menu based on guest preferences." - Lulu Chang
"Tasting menus normally start at $195 a person at Michelin-starred Xiquet, but a newer “executive” five-course meal for $95 a person is now available from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily (Tuesday-Friday, and Saturday at 5 p.m.). In one hour, embark on a culinary journey of modern Spanish cooking that includes many of the same highlights as the full prix fixe spread. Plates rotate monthly and there’s an option to add a wine pairing, with a premium pairing of rarer vintages also offered at $170 per person." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb
"This One Star is offering diners a $65 dinner menu during the 2024 Restaurant Week." - MICHELIN Guide
