Danny Lleyo's will transform the wine bar that's currently below his hit Spanish restaurant.
At Xiquet, Lledó has created an immersive gastronomic experience, so it’ll be interesting to see what he does with the downstairs expansion. Guests partake in a $220 22-course, with an optional $200 wine pairing . Light bites such as house-aged tuna loin and gazpacho are served on the building’s middle level. The main courses, which typically include some sort of paella, are then served upstairs. And each meal ends with pastries on the mezzanine level.
Of course, some locals are bound to miss Slate, which was highly regarded for its 200-plus bottle wine list and $70 prix fixe menus with $40 wine pairings. And Xiquet received its just one year after opening, which is certainly a tough act to follow. Lledó’s new spot, then, has a lot to live up to.
