Located inside The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad, Bazaar Meat by José Andrés presents a theatrical yet technically grounded take on the modern steakhouse. The restaurant is centered on wood-fired cooking and large-format cuts, with a particular focus on American Wagyu and premium Japanese beef.
The menu is organized around “Meats from the Fire,” which includes a range of large-cut selections described as “Our Big Guys, Cooked José’s Way,” alongside smaller-format options. A robust American Wagyu program anchors the steak offerings, while an exclusive “Tasting through Japan” experience highlights Wagyu and Kobe beef prepared tableside on an Ishiyaki stone.
Beyond steakhouse classics, the kitchen incorporates Andrés’ signature culinary techniques, including elements of molecular gastronomy and Spanish-inspired small plates. Guests may encounter dishes such as crisp cones filled with crème fraîche and caviar, liquid olive spheres, smoked oysters, and foie gras wrapped in cotton candy.
Tableside service plays a central role in the experience, from martini preparation to interactive presentations. The restaurant also offers José’s Ultimate Tasting Menu, a five-course progression curated by Andrés that showcases the breadth of the kitchen’s range.
The dining room balances spectacle with polished hospitality, attracting a mix of locals, travelers, families, and celebratory groups. With its emphasis on premium sourcing, live-fire cooking, and theatrical presentation, Bazaar Meat positions itself as a distinctive steakhouse destination in New York’s NoMad neighborhood.
