The best restaurants Los Angeles And Its Surroundings

Opened in 1967, this popular institution deals every day with a long line of customers, attracted by its fresh produce. The concept of the place is summed up by this phrase: "The reason we don't serve breakfast is that we're out to catch lunch". Clam chowder, grilled seafood, crab salad... The menu offers a fine selection of fish and shellfish served as sandwiches or by the plate. Order inside and sit out on one of the terraces overlooking the ocean.

If you want to taste dim sum - small steamed ravioli - worthy of the best Hong Kong restaurants, this is the chain for you. The preparations are of a rare finesse, the flavors fragrant, flowery, surprising... From noodles to wontons, every dish is a success. What's more, while the desserts are far from traditional, the way they are revisited is highly successful, with chocolate and mochi xiaolongbaos topping the list. You'll also find addresses in Costa Mesa, Los Angeles and San Diego.

Chinese food lovers, here you are. In this authentic and unpretentious restaurant, the flavors of the Middle Kingdom deploy in your plate with their thousand delicate fragrances, their undulating aromas and outstanding flavors for the western palace. Corn soup and dim sum are particularly recommendable. A charming service, no sleeves, in a quiet setting with a quiet light, as a parenthesis over time. Forget your glass of wine, order a teapot and dive into delicate, diverse and exotic flavors of Chinese cuisine…

A heartbeat for this Australian address west of the Sunset Boulevard. Eveleigh occupies a building dating back to 1923, which is ideal for the most charming stopover, with its rustic interior, breathtaking views and aromatic aromatic herbs. The place is unanimous for brunches on the weekend.

Heart for the home made sandwiches of this shop in wines and cheese. A small price and extra fresh ingredients: olive oil and organic balsamic vinegar, dried tomatoes, Parmesan, quenelle, avocados. The hotel is located in Larchmont Village, south of Hollywood.

Although Café Gratitude is the second to open its doors in Los Angeles - in 2012 - its values come to us from the San Francisco Bay Area. The company's promise: vegan, environmentally-friendly and tasty dishes. And they've kept their promise, with a menu as healthy as it is delicious, featuring bowls, salads, sandwiches, smoothies and juices. We like this address for its pretty patio and its location, a 10-minute walk from Venice Beach, but the chain is also established in the small Larchmont district.

The general opinion of the Angelenos (and ours as well) is that Thai Town's Thai restaurants are frankly mediocre. That's probably why Night + Market Song, this small ultra trendy restaurant located on Sunset Boulevard run by Kris Yenbamroong, is a real hit. This young film graduate chef has no culinary training other than growing up in a family of Thai restaurateurs in L.A. The whimsical, colourful and trendy decoration is the ideal setting to uncork a Thai beer before an evening in the neighbourhood's bars! Surprisingly cheap, Night + Market Song offers an authentic cuisine, with sharp and fresh flavours. Try coconut rice, a sticky rice cooked in coconut milk, and, at lunch, Thai Boxing Chicken, a barbecue chicken traditionally served around Bangkok's boxing rings by street vendors.

Probably the best pastrami on rye in Southern California can be found here. Langer's is so popular with Angelenos that the intersection of 7th Street and Alvarado Street is nicknamed Langer's Square; a godsend that a subway stop is right in front of the restaurant, making it accessible by public transport. A fabulous mix of customers - young and old, rich and poor - adds to the friendly atmosphere.

This little restaurant in Little Tokyo transports visitors to Japan. We take a seat at the counter, facing theitamae - the chef who prepares the sushi - who works before our very eyes. We love the authentic, hushed ambience, the ban on cell phones and, above all, the exceptional quality of the sushi. While everything is delicious, we recommend you try the miso soup and tuna toro, which are hard to find in Japanese restaurants in France. A great address! Be prepared to wait a little at the entrance.

A good place to eat burgers. It is said that the owner of this chain, Adam Fleischman, tasted all thehamburgers in L.A. to design the best ones for his restaurant. The burger breads come from a Portuguese bakery and the fillings are varied, with parmesan cheese, roasted onion or shiitake mushrooms. The Umami burger is probably the most successful on the menu.

A more Mexican restaurant? Do you misunderstand! In this small shop there is a kitchen in northern Mexico, different from the rest of the country. The tortilla is made from flour (not maize) and is very fine, and there is also a certain resemblance to the French pancakes. The leaders of the Sonora region are also known to cook the country's best asada meat. It can be said that reputation is respected with meat cooked with a delicious wood fire. For a first one we recommend the very tempting Bean & Cheese Burrito. A superb address for a quick lunch in a family atmosphere.

In the heart of Downtown, Maccheroni Republic is renowned for its delicious fresh pasta, made in-house every day. Ravioli with pumpkin, rigatoni with burrata, bigoli with angus and sausage ragout, linguine with seafood - scallops, shrimps and clams - agnolotti filled withosso bucco... More than fifteen recipes in all. Excellent value for money. Plus: the pretty little terrace. All in all, if we had to choose one Italian address in Los Angeles on this type of budget, it would be this one!

The kitchen isn't what distinguishes this restaurant from the gastronomic stage in L.A. It is a mixture of traditional architecture and typical Hollywood stories that make the best of Musso & Frank. It was one of the favourite places of Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. If it is not so frequented by stars, it remains in memories as an old Hollywood institution. Cocktails are also a good argument for coming here. You are discouraged from tasting vegetables or talking with old servers; on the other hand, let's go to the bar where you will certainly enjoy more.

Providence is renowned for being the best seafood restaurant in the United States. Without exaggeration, the plates here resemble masterpieces. The food is as beautiful to contemplate as it is delicious to savor: each dish is of rare finesse, executed with unparalleled skill. As the tasting menu changes frequently, it's difficult to recommend a particular dish; what's certain is that you'll come away from your evening amazed, with your taste buds full of fish. A great address.

Right on the Venice Boardwalk, this charming restaurant is an ideal vantage point for the many artists and misfits that roam the neighborhood. Since it opened in 1978, Fig Tree has been a family-owned neighborhood institution, blending Latin roots with Pacific Rim influences. It has a tempting menu, with a focus on breakfast, between plantain pancakes and chilaquiles. Also on the menu: a dozen or so dishes to be enjoyed at lunch or dinner, ranging from chicken and avocado to burgers.

Right at the beginning of the Santa Monica Pier, where the crowds thicken, stands this family-run address, which has been in business for 40 years. As with many Californian establishments, The Albright is a fast-casual affair, with fast-food-style ordering and payment at the counter, and plates similar to those of a traditional restaurant. Here, the food is tasty, the oysters fresh. On the menu: a wide variety of seafood and raw, fried or grilled fish, as well as burgers, rolls, pokés and ceviches - to name but a few.

A meal at Fogo de Chão is the promise of a feast. This Brazilian restaurant offers a wide selection of meats: filet mignon, lamb, pork chops, or chicken surrounded by bacon served with steak... All roasted on a giant grill. The plus: a spectacular salad bar, with smoked salmon, vegetables and soup - among others. The restaurant is mostly frequented by families celebrating events, so the atmosphere is always festive.

The decor is superb. The kitchen has a turn of strength, with its delicious insensés mixes and its great classics based on lobster and seafood. The whole Los Angeles is getting there. Amateurs, choose from the bar, where the kitchen will be made in front of you. Fascinating!

Restaurant decorated directly with China and propaganda from the era of the great Timonier. The terrace is particularly pleasant in the evening, when traffic on the avenue has stopped or almost. The proposed Chinese cuisine, of course, is good and especially copious.

A true angeleno institution since its opening in 1908 by the French Philippe Mathieu, this great dinner has been located since the 1950 s at the gates of Chinatown. Its specialty is the French dipped sandwich, a sandwich lightly wet in the juice of meat whose bread is garned (beef, lamb, turkey, choice). Philippe Mathieu, in 1918, accidentally dropped the bread of the sandwich he was preparing in the oven sauce; the client, a policeman, decided to eat it anyway. Amazed by the taste of this failed sandwich, he came back the next day with a group of friends to ask for a sandwich soaked in the meat juice… the legend was born. Nothing good gastronomic in the old fast food, but the salads of macaroni or potatoes, the soup soups or broken peas, Caesar salads, the inevitable coffee juice and the famous sandwiches are true diner classic. The American way of life optimistic and good child of the 1950 s. The apple pie (apple pie), another classic of this address, is a simple and comforting regal.
