Set in the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC, The Bazaar is the culmination of a 30-year dream for Chef José Andrés. Drawing inspiration from this iconic location, which first opened in 1899 and served as DC’s General Post Office until 1914, The Bazaar is a multi-level destination reinvented with avant-garde and Americana-inspired decor.

    Terrible service. Empty restaurant. Far too quiet. Uneven food. I eat out in DC approximately three nights per week. This was one of the most disappointing meals I’ve had in a long time. I could go into more detail, but it’s not even worth it. I’ve totally written this place off.

    Another excellent meal at The Bazaar! We enjoyed bringing a good friend visiting from Boston. He was properly impressed, starting with the Crab Louie Cone and throughout the delicious plates which were served. My personal favorites: Neptune Pillows, Eggplant Escalivida, and Pluma Iberico de Bellota. Our server 'Kitty' was exceptional for both his knowledge and style.
