    Listeners, buckle up—Los Angeles is exploding with culinary dynamite in 2026, blending global flair with sun-kissed local bounty. The Infatuation spotlights a wave of eagerly awaited openings, from Gott's Roadside's retro diner vibes at the Original Farmers Market, slinging kimchi-topped burgers and garlic fries that crunch with salty perfection, to Lielle in Beverlywood, where a Swedish chef from Frantzen crafts four-course prix fixe menus starring California produce in elegant, pared-down harmony.

  • LA's Fine Dining Glow Up: Why Every Hot Chef Is Ditching DC and New York for Beverly Hills Right Now
    Feb 7 2026
    Food Scene Los Angeles

    # Los Angeles Dining in 2026: A City Reimagining Its Culinary Identity

    Los Angeles is experiencing a seismic shift in its restaurant landscape, transforming from a city chasing trends into one setting them. The arrival of acclaimed chefs and bold new concepts reveals a dining scene hungry for sophistication, innovation, and the kind of culinary risk-taking that has historically belonged to coastal rivals.

    The most telling trend emerging across Los Angeles is the arrival of internationally acclaimed fine dining establishments. Jônt, one of Washington D.C.'s most celebrated restaurants, is opening Ôde by Jônt at the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills, serving an intimate twenty-course tasting menu drawing from French and Japanese cuisine focused on seafood and local produce. Meanwhile, Lielle, helmed by a Swedish chef who trained at Stockholm's Frantzen and New York's Per Se, is establishing itself in Beverlywood with a four-course prix fixe celebrating California ingredients. These aren't celebrity chef vanity projects—they represent serious culinary minds choosing Los Angeles as their next frontier.

    But Los Angeles isn't simply importing prestige. The city is remixing global influences through its own cultural lens. Mott 32 brings Cantonese fine dining from Hong Kong, featuring their signature wood-roasted peking duck aged for forty-two days. Bad Roman transplants New York's over-the-top Italian energy to Beverly Hills with creative twists like pepperoni cups with ranch dip, while Pijja Palace expands its wildly popular Indian-Italian fusion concept. Sushisamba returns to America after a decade away, merging Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisines on a West Hollywood rooftop.

    Perhaps most intriguingly, Los Angeles is witnessing a democratization of culinary excellence through ambitious food hall projects. Round One, a Japanese entertainment company, is launching a twenty-thousand-square-foot food hall on Sunset Strip housing satellite locations of eight acclaimed Japanese restaurants, many opening in the United States for the first time, with rumors of high-profile names like Sushi Saito and Tempura Takiya from Tokyo.

    Neighborhood restaurants are proving equally compelling. Gott's Roadside, the beloved Bay Area diner, is opening two Los Angeles locations featuring burgers topped with green chile and kimchi. Little Fish, the celebrated fried fish sandwich pop-up, has opened a permanent outpost in Melrose Hill. Wilde's in Los Feliz blends British heritage with California ingredients through rustic charm.

    What unites these disparate concepts is Los Angeles's emerging identity as a city unafraid to blend high ambition with approachable hospitality. The culinary scene is no longer following New York or San Francisco—it's forging its own path, grounded in the region's agricultural abundance and cultural diversity. For food lovers, Los Angeles has never been more essential..

    Resy raves about Wilde’s Los Feliz, where bangers and mash meet flaky meat pies infused with California greens, evoking a cozy British pub under LA palms. Little Fish on Melrose Hill fries up golden sandwiches that pop-up fans chased citywide, and Holbox in Mercado La Paloma earns Michelin nods for mariscos by chef Gilberto Cetina. Nancy Silverton's Max and Helen’s in Larchmont elevates diner classics with Phil Rosenthal's nostalgic spin, while Le Dräq downtown revives Josef Centeno's bäco sandwiches stuffed with crispy shrimp.

    Mark your calendars for LA Magazine's Best New Restaurants Celebration on February 23 at The Sun Rose in West Hollywood—a tasting frenzy of the city's boldest newcomers.
