L'avis du Guide Michelin
Add this lustrous pearl to the treasury of Chef José Andrés’ culinary empire. The eye-catching décor includes a glowing octopus sculpture that looms above the central bar--a visual cue for the oceanic theme. Business types make up the bulk of the clientele, but a signature sense of whimsy pervades, keeping things from feeling stuffy.The seafood-centric menu deftly juggles Spanish and Latin-American flavors, seen in starters like mussels in escabeche, or a Peruvian-inspired bigeye tuna ceviche with ponzu sauce, puffed quinoa, and furikake. Oysters on the half shell are delicious as is, but a dose of leche de tigre provides further enhancement. You’ll also find elevated takes on standbys like lobster rolls and fried calamari, all done with a deft touch.
