LSL

OPENED: May 2024
CHEFS: Christian Le Squer, Masaki Saito and Didier Leroy
SEATS: 9
CUISINE: LSL is an intimate nine-seat restaurant built around an unlikely culinary collaboration between three extraordinary chefs. The result is the most rarefied French haute cuisine being expressed with exceptional Japanese products.

We remind people — it’s not just a restaurant, not just a culinary experience. It’s an experience, period. Chef Didier Leroy says it best: ‘restaurant’ means to restore. Whether it’s taste, smell, sight or sound, everything in this room is designed to bring you back to yourself. You’re meant to leave lighter than when you came in. This is the heart of what we do — and the most important thing is the heart. GM Matthieu Arteau
