The Los Angeles Restaurants We Love For a Celebration

By

Los Angeles is one of the world’s great dining cities (obviously) with hundreds of restaurants representing every kind of cuisine. Want a Michelin-anointed pizza place? You got it. Farm-to-table Thai? No problem. Retro-style red sauce Italian? You’re covered.

However, finding a restaurant that can accommodate a large group can be a challenge. Many places don’t have the space. So, to help bridge that gap, we did the work and pulled together a list of venues that are ready and eager to host your next gathering. Most of the places on this list encourage family-style dining, offering a wide variety of shareable plates for maximum tasting potential. From Armenian stalwarts with belly dancers to romantic rooftops and some of the most coveted reservations in town, here are the restaurants in Los Angeles we love for celebrating right now.
