How We Rank Restaurants
These rankings are based on data, not opinion — we count appearances on 10 trusted lists like Eater, Michelin, and the LA Times.
Data-Driven
We track multiple trusted sources to identify where expert opinions converge.
Bias-Free
No paid placements, no sponsored content — just pure consensus data.
Regularly Updated
We monitor new expert lists and refresh rankings to reflect what's current.
💡 The magic happens when trusted sources independently choose the same restaurants. That's real consensus — and it saves you time and guesswork.
Trusted Source Key
We surface restaurants that appear across LA's most respected food sources. These are the 10 sources we track:
Bon Appétit, Eater, LA Times, Michelin Guide, New York Times, Condé Nast Traveler, Food & Wine, The Infatuation, Time Out, Yelp
Note: We use 10 trusted sources for our main rankings. For the Best New Restaurants list, we include only 4 — Eater, the LA Times, Time Out, and The Infatuation — since they're the only ones that regularly publish new restaurant lists.
Powered by AI + human research. While we work to keep the information accurate, some details may contain errors.
What if two restaurants are tied in mentions?
If multiple restaurants have the same number of expert mentions, we list them alphabetically to keep things fair and transparent.
