Great restaurants are a dime a dozen in Los Angeles. If you're looking for great food, your options are endless.
Trying to pick the best restaurants is a fool's errand. There are too many great places.
Here are four L.A. restaurants that are thriving in the crowded restaurant scene.
Berbere
Vegan restaurants have been popping up all over Los Angeles in the last five years. Simply being a vegan restaurant isn't unique anymore. But, being a plant-based Ethiopian spot is pretty unique.
Berbere was made in an effort to inspire Los Angeles to live healthier lives. They believe strongly that you don't have to sacrifice taste to eat healthily. Their diverse, entirely plant-based menu proves that point nicely.

Dulan's Soul Food Kitchen
Adolf Dulan grew up watching his mother cook. His observant nature taught him to cook fried chicken, fresh collard greens, and many other dishes, just like his mother.
Those childhood lessons laid the foundation for his current culinary success.
