Description

Summary: An intimate 12-seat venue serves a 20+ course tasting with playful, science-inspired twists.

Minibar by José Andrés stands as a culinary laboratory where twelve guests gather in a compact, theater-like space. A dedicated team crafts more than 20 courses, moving from one small bite to the next in front of diners. The experience blends spectacle and gastronomy, with interactive moments, whimsical textures, and surprising flavor pairings. Barmini sits nearby for additional sips, and attentive staff guide the evening with a mix of charm and precision. The tempo stays brisk, the mood buoyant, and the room charged with curiosity.
