Saam @ SLS Hotel Beverly Hills

Total excellent meal and service. contemplating the detail of a z ... very impressive and creative, fresh and clean aromas simply delicious (even if there is nothing simple about it:! look forward to the new concept of this very talented young cook!

90 percent of the presentations were spectacular. The value, given a price fixe point of $150 was certainly worth it perhaps the most creative cuisine I have ever experienced. However, I was offended by the fact that there was an extra charge for minor additions such as sparkling water and expresso. Plus, the markup on the offered wine pairings were OUTRAGEOUS. I priced a couple of the individual offerings and found the mark ups to be 500 600% of RETAIL. Not really acceptable. Still, if price is no object (I still have to work for a living, unfortunately), you really can't get a better foodie experience ANYWHERE.

The service and food was excellent. One thing that should be an opportunity for improvement is the check in process. We checked in and was told that we didn't have a reservation. I had to show them my confirmation number and still they were not able to find me on their computer. There seems to be a disconnect between SAAM and the Bazaar in terms of reservations. There was another party at the restaurant who had the same problem and told me that this also happened last year when they tried to book and was not able to be seated.

This was our fourth time at Saam and each time has been unforgettable with incredible new menus. Brandon, the sommelier, was great in guiding us through our options and made some outstanding pairings. On a prior visit we brought my brother, who is vegan, and they accommodated him without blinking an eye. The food is spectacular and the whole experience is a real treat. We will definitely be back.

We went shortly before they closed for the redesign and it was absolutely fantastic.
