Sushi Inaba

Japanese, Sushi · ★ Michelin

$$$$

Chef Yasuhiro Hirano turns out some of the most exciting sushi in town at a counter in a private room tucked within sister restaurant, I-naba. His particular magic lies in weaving together a few key components, including exotic fish that he ages before blending with a host of ingredients. He’s mastered dishes that more established pros haven't—and to such precise and polished effect.With just a handful of seats at the counter and one seating nightly, reservations are a must (and go quickly). Chef Hirano enjoys sharing his craft, but you may opt for silence to savor such delicacies as soba with

Heritage

Californian, Contemporary · ★ Michelin

$$$$

Set in a converted Craftsman in the historic Rose Park neighborhood, this inviting locale is removed from the hustle and bustle of Long Beach. Brother-and-sister duo Philip and Lauren Pretty run the kitchen and front of house, respectively, curating an experience that’s relaxed, but gets the details just right. On offer is a single multicourse tasting (priced quite reasonably) that highlights top-notch ingredients, including produce sourced from their nearby farm. The cooking has a California accent, and seasonal fruit may form a common thread, as in preserved kumquats paired with roasted beet

Mélisse

Modern French · ★★ Michelin

$$$$

Since opening in 1999, Chef Josiah Citrin’s flagship has been a Santa Monica mainstay. Through its many evolutions, the restaurant has sought to offer a certain kind of fine dining experience that will never go out of style. Slip in through a discreet side entrance to enter the enclosed space that combines a vibe-y underground feel with classic luxury. One can expect the finest cutlery and plates, gorgeous presentations, plenty of tableside saucing, and a level of French decadence that borders on gratuitous. The results are indulgent. Truffles, wagyu, uni, and crab weave their way across intri

Vespertine

Contemporary · ★★ Michelin

$$$$

Chef Jordan Kahn's singular operation is tucked inside a strikingly futuristic edifice of red steel aptly named “The Waffle.” The bold, stark setting is a proper stage for this highly creative restaurant where diners enjoy a tasting menu that is equally out of the ordinary. Each dish is visually stunning, with cuisine that is not only daringly inventive (at times downright whimsical), but also marshals finely honed technique and impeccably balanced flavors, as in an artful dish of scallop with passionfruit, ají amarillo and petals of horseradish tuile, or a bowl studded with countless edible f

Somni

Contemporary, Spanish · ★★★ Michelin

$$$$

Chef Aitor Zabala and his dedicated team have awakened Somni, Catalan for "dream," from a long sleep and have fashioned this revamped iteration as a distinctly personal and unique dining experience. Tucked away just off Santa Monica Avenue, the dining room's soothing, creamy palette with light wood and glass is marked by a colorful bull's head from the original spot, hinting at the Spanish-inflected cuisine. A procession of small bites is meticulously arranged and endlessly creative, sating diners with an abundance of rich flavors and textural interplay (think mussel escabeche, gazpacho, or th

As has been the case since opening in 2005, purity and precision are the underpinnings of Chef Michael Cimarusti's California cooking, and his cuisine has grown even more impressive over the years. The tasting menu blends global inspiration and classic technique with a modern sensibility, and sources the freshest and most sustainable seafood, often wild-caught from American waters. At no point during the meal will you doubt its impeccable quality, especially while savoring dishes such as a tart of lobster mousse and box crab set in a crab beurre blanc, or roasted monkfish with cauliflower and

Hayato

japanese · ★★ Michelin

$$$$

With only one seating per night, this exclusive destination is a treat for a mere handful of lucky diners. Indeed, securing a reservation is no small feat, but the reward is a culinary spectacle with few equals. All eyes are on Chef Brandon Hayato Go, who handles and arranges every ingredient with care and explains every course in great detail. Seasonality is everything, as thoughtfully sourced ingredients are sliced, fried, grilled or steamed to exacting standards. The likes of abalone, snow crab, onions and corn are presented on prized Japanese pottery and porcelain collected by the chef him

Knife Pleat

Contemporary, Modern French · ★ Michelin

$$$$

This elegant little operation, set on the third floor of South Coast Plaza amidst fashionable stores, has plenty of charm. With a gleaming open kitchen edged by a chef’s counter, plus a secluded patio, this is a spot to dine in style. Chef Tony Esnault offers his personal take on classic French cuisine, tinged with international influences, offered at both lunch and dinner as prix fixe menus of varying length. Open with small bites, before proceeding to more substantial courses like steelhead trout with fennel and rainbow chard, or barley risotto with chestnut, parmesan and brassicas, before e
