Former Los Angeles sommelier Anthony Cailan accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women.
Anthony Cailan, a celebrated sommelier who worked at several Los Angeles restaurants including Bestia and Animal, is facing allegations of sexual assault and harassment by multiple former colleagues, according to a report., details accusations by four women of late-night invitations to Cailan’s New York apartment and sexually aggressive behavior.
“We have zero tolerance for any type of harassment at our restaurants,” Bestia chefs and co-owners Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis and partner and director of operations Leah Bunch said in a statement. “We are a family-run business and we work to create a culture that instills that sense of family with everyone on the team. If issues are not brought to our attention, we aren’t able to act on the situation.
“While Anthony worked briefly at Animal, we do not condone this type of behavior and find it unacceptable,” Dotolo said in an email to The Times. “We’ve always believed in treating everyone fairly, equally and with the utmost respect and these actions have no place in the food and wine industry or in this world.”
The former wine bar manager, 22-year-old Raquel Makler, told the New York Times that Cailan was her mentor. She alleged that he invited her to his New York apartment to keep him company while he sobered up. While there, she said Cailan forcibly undressed her, touched and kissed her.
