Let me welcome you to the vibrant and diverse culinary scene of Los Angeles, where every meal tantalizes your taste buds and leaves an indelible mark on your memory and you might even see a celebrity!

From the sun-soaked beach side spots to the enchanting dinner destinations, the city offers a plethora of dining options that cater to every palate and preference.

Here are 5 of the best restaurants to try in Los Angeles:

Jon and Vinny’s

This cool and laid back Italian spot has been around for awhile but really started to get attention when Kim Kardashain famously took those grainy Instagram pics with a Diet Coke in the foreground and Pete Davidson in the background.

Kim dining there aside – the food is so yummy and it’s a hip spot in the Fairfax district (around the corner from the Grove and Canter’s deli.

What to get at Jon and Vinny’s: the spicy fusilli.

Mother Wolf

This new hot spot in the heart of Hollywood is a must try – also an Italian restaurant but in a totally different fashion. It has a much more grandiose style with a large bar and dining area and it’s perfect for dinner before a big night out! If you’re a Vanderpump Rules fan: Schwartz & Sandy’s is very close and you can swing by for a drink and perhaps spot the infamous duo: Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz.

Nobu Malibu

The fuss about this place is real – it’s on the beach in Malibu – literally above the sand and it’s a stunning restaurant to have dinner. Getting a table is difficult – so plan ahead or you can always opt for the bar and lounge seating (indoor and outdoor) which is first come and first serve.

Joan’s on Third

This is a cafe and deli where you can eat there or take away. It’s excellent for breakfast and lunch on the weekdays and brunch on the weekdays. The omelette is so excellent – served french style and their chicken salad salad is the perfect yummy and light lunch.

Ardor at The Edition West Hollywood

Ardor is a fabulous oasis in the middle of West Hollywood – it’s inside the very trendy Edition hotel and it feels like a jungle. The ambiance is green and luscious and food is savory! From an onion ring tower to the grilled branzino there is something for everyone on this menu.

Other restaurants to try in Los Angeles:

Nat n’ Al’s, El Coyote, Canter’s Deli.
