Headed to LA and wondering where to eat? This magazine has you covered! We're serving up a guide to LA's most unforgettable dining experiences. These are the spots this WAUG editor cherishes so much, it was almost hard to share them!

01. Raffi's Place

For the best Mediterranean food in LA, Raffi's Place is a fine-dining gem recognized by both LA's Korean community and locals. Their kebabs are famous for their perfectly balanced seasoning - not too spicy, not too salty. And when enjoyed with their generous serving of cheese, it's pure bliss. Order "Family Style" and get the meat and rice separately to mix them to your liking. That's the secret to maximizing the flavor! When you combine the flatbread, infused with the flavorful meat juices, with the rice, you'll understand why you'll probably be back for a second visit during your trip.

02. Il Pastaio

Craving pasta that you'll never forget? Then Il Pastaio is a must-visit. Located in Beverly Hills, this restaurant serves up both authentic Italian pasta dishes and innovative, trendy creations. Every dish is tempting, making it a favorite among celebrities. Their signature dish is the black truffle pasta, an artistic blend of delicate fresh truffle aroma and rich cheese.

Address: 400 N Canon Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, USA

03. Vespertine

Finally, we have Vespertine, the most impressive and surprising restaurant this editor encountered in LA. "A precious experience that stimulates not just your taste buds but all your senses and emotions." "Eating nature, eating the earth." These are the unique concepts behind the extraordinary dishes served here. Their dedication to reflecting nature's essence in their cuisine is evident in the stunningly beautiful plating. Is it art or is it food? You might find yourself asking that very question. Yes, it's pricey, but as a complete culinary adventure, it's worth experiencing at least once in LA.
