Add a Little Razzle Andazzle

RH Restaurant and Bar Opens at the Andaz West Hollywood

You’ve been dosing, alright.

Ampicillin, penicillin, Tums.

Hey, Dr. Feelgood, how about a new Rx? RH, the new restaurant and bar at Andaz (the new $40 mill incarnation of the Hollywood Hyatt) opens today.

Though it takes its name from the hotel’s old rock moniker, Riot House (Robert Plant and Keith Richards both tossed TVs out the windows), the Sunset Strip spot is about a different kind of local scene.

While you knock back Cali-made beers and wines and signature drinks like The Steelo with St-Germain, grapefruit juice, and fresh blueberries, chef Sebastien Archambault runs the market-to-table show from the open kitchen, riffing on seasonal offerings like pata negra ham with tomato and garlic crostini and Fanny Bay oysters with roasted pork sausage.

If you overdo it, don’t worry: You can always get a room.

And take a chill pill, dude.

RH at Andaz, 8401 Sunset Boulevard, between North Kings and Queens Roads, West Hollywood (323-785-6090 or andaz.com).
