The Best Barbecue Near TA-KUMI, by the Record

Josper grills run hot here, and the whole room smells faintly of embers before you've sat down. Leña is a meat-forward restaurant from celebrity chef Dani García, with Tomahawks and T-bones as the main event and yakipinchos, a smoky riff on yakitori, keeping things interesting between cuts. The tableside Caesar salad, assembled in front of you with aged beef, is either a great bit of theatre or a provocation, depending on your mood.
