Lazy Bear

4.8 (1,122) $$$$ $$$$ Modern, Californian, Progressive American

Description

Summary: Guests share a long elm table as the open kitchen explains each course, creating a communal tasting.

Lazy Bear has transformed from a popular pop-up into a permanent, bi‑level dining space that feels like a modern dinner party set in a rustic cabin chic. Tickets for the 15 course tasting go on sale monthly, with two seatings at 6 and 8:30 p.m. Guests begin upstairs with snacks, then descend to two long American elm tables where the cooks describe each course to all guests in unison. Dishes range from smoked trout on cod roe to dry aged duck, and the wine cellar houses over 1,000 labels.
