LA is a city known for a lot of different things: The heart of America’s film industry. Home to the rich and famous. A land of arts, culture, and glamorous nightlife. But what we really are, at the bottom of it all, is a place of people—from all walks of life and all corners of the world. And there’s no better expression of people, of the essence of culture, than food. So at its core, LA really is a foodie city.
Want to experience this foodie city to its fullest? Here are seven hot new LA restaurants you don’t want to miss.
Tacos 1986
Downtown

It was once an on-the-move taco stand with no permanent location, but now it’s got a home in Downtown LA! Tacos 1986 features ultra-fresh Tijuana-style tacos in beef, chicken, adobada, and even mushroom. Be prepared to take your tacos and move on, though; this eatery is standing room only.
Ototo
Echo Park

This Japanese restaurant is the sister of neighboring Tsubaki—with a focus on sake and snacks. There’s a chicken katsu sandwich, crudo, radicchio salad, okonomiyaki… and a nice list of sake options.
Adamae
Echo Park

Another Echo Park favorite, Adamae is a new restaurant with a vintage 1970s feel. Its food is both traditional Mediterranean and modern Californian, with an emphasis on fresh and healthy flavors.
Bon Temps
Downtown

The day starts off in this multi-story restaurant with roasted coffee and warm French pastries and closes with a refined dinner of European favorites like lamb ribeye. In the heart of Downtown LA, Bon Temps also features a raw bar and robust cocktail menu.
Angler
Beverly Grove

A transplant from San Francisco, Angler is all about serving up the freshest, the most creative, and the best seafood in town. Chef Josha Skenes once owned a restaurant on the World’s Best 50 restaurant list… and it shows.
Auburn
Hollywood

The ambiance of Auburn is almost as fresh and exquisite as its fare! Minimalist decor, an open ceiling, and plenty of greenery give this new eatery a casual, sunny vibe, and its menu is both creative and simple. Diners pick from twelve courses—nine savory and three sweet—and have options for wine pairings, too.
Kassi Club
Beverly Grove

This stupendous Greek/Mediterranean restaurant is all about modern elegance. Once Goldie’s, Kassi Club now features luxuriant modern decor and an impressively authentic menu.
