Lazy Bear

Lazy Bear’s cuisine centers around nostalgia and a reverence for the wild, utilizing a wide variety of preservation methods and inventive techniques. Its communal dining format, uniquely social among fine dining restaurants, makes Lazy Bear an essential dining experience.

But Lazy Bear’s beginnings were unusual, to say the least. Starting as an underground restaurant in 2009 in Chef David Barzelay's apartment, Lazy Bear has always been a bit different. David’s passion for throwing elaborate dinner parties turned from hobby into career in 2009 after he was laid off from his job as a lawyer.
