Selected entries from the current guide for West Hollywood.
West Hollywood, United States
Casa Madera on the Sunset Strip occupies one of West Hollywood's most recognizable dining addresses, bringing a Mexican-inflected menu to a scene more accustomed to mid-century steakhouses and rooftop cocktail bars. The setting trades on the Strip's long tradition of spectacle, while the kitchen grounds the experience in something more specific. Plan ahead: this address draws from a wide West Hollywood and Hollywood Hills catchment.
West Hollywood, United States
Restaurant AOC at 8700 W 3rd St holds a 3-Star Accreditation from the World of Fine Wine Los Angeles Awards, placing it among the stronger wine-program restaurants in West Hollywood's dense dining corridor. The format draws on the small-plates tradition that has defined California's most wine-forward dining rooms for two decades. Reservations are advisable given its recognition within the LA fine-dining circuit.
West Hollywood, United States
Saltie Girl is worth booking when the group wants a lively West Hollywood seafood dinner with a serious tinned-fish angle, raw-bar energy, and enough polish for a date or celebration. At about $80 per person, it works better as a seafood-led night out than a casual drop-in, especially for diners who want à la carte flexibility over a tasting menu.
West Hollywood, United States
On Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, Arden occupies the more considered end of a dining strip where sourcing credentials and environmental intent now carry as much weight as kitchen pedigree.

West Hollywood, United States
Astro Burger on Santa Monica Boulevard has held a place in West Hollywood's casual eating circuit long enough to qualify as institutional.

West Hollywood, United States

West Hollywood, United States
Boul'ange belongs to the quieter side of West Hollywood dining, where neighborhood rhythm matters more than trophy-chasing.

Boxwood sits on North San Vicente Boulevard in West Hollywood, a stretch that has quietly developed its own dining identity distinct from the louder corridors of Sunset and Santa Monica.

West Hollywood, United States
Boxwood on the Roof belongs to West Hollywood’s rooftop dining lane, where the room matters as much as the plate and California sourcing sets the baseline.

West Hollywood, United States
Cavatina sits on Alta Loma Road in West Hollywood, occupying a stretch of the city where the residential and commercial blur into something quieter than the Sunset Strip but no less considered.

Cavatina draws a crowd that knows the difference.
West Hollywood, United States
Dialog Cafe on Holloway Drive sits in the quieter residential edge of West Hollywood, where the neighborhood's café culture operates at a register removed from the Sunset Strip.

West Hollywood, United States
What used to be The Den has been reimagined into Galerie on Sunset, a swanky, Old Hollywood–inspired lounge and restaurant. Think low lighting, booths, a full photo booth setup, and a room that naturally shifts from dinner service into a DJ-driven lounge.

West Hollywood, United States
On Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, Gracias Madre has spent years defining what plant-based Mexican cooking looks like at a serious restaurant level.

West Hollywood, United States
Positioned on the second floor of 7717 Santa Monica Blvd, Irie Restaurant occupies a stretch of West Hollywood where Caribbean and global influences have quietly built a loyal following.

West Hollywood’s Design District is a distinctive corner of Los Angeles, a little triangular oasis surrounded by notable shops, restaurants, and nightlife in the city. Le Parc at Melrose is set on a residential street between Melrose and Santa Monica Boulevard, and occupies a relatively unassuming converted apartment building. Inside, however, are suites that marry residential spaciousness and comforts with boutique-hotel good looks. Kitchenettes come equipped with Keurig coffee makers, turntables and fireplaces are universal, and each suite has a private balcony in addition to plentiful indoor lounge space. The look is glamorous, but in the kind of low-key way that’s suited to an extended stay, informed by Hollywood’s Art Deco heritage and the modernist influence of the Design District. Knoll, the hotel’s restaurant, serves French-influenced farm-to-table fare in an elegant dining room, while more casual fare is available on the rooftop by the poolside. This roof deck, incidentally, is one of Le Parc’s highlights, a semi-private refuge by day and a lively but secluded nightspot after dark, a welcome counterpoint to the high-intensity nightlife of the Sunset Strip and West Hollywood’s busier corners.
West Hollywood, United States
Petit Ermitage on Cynthia Street in West Hollywood operates as a Michelin Selected boutique hotel that positions itself firmly outside the standard West Hollywood hospitality template.

West Hollywood, United States
Kimpton La Peer Hotel occupies a quiet residential block in West Hollywood's Design District, a deliberate remove from the Sunset Strip's busier corridors.

For visitors whose West Hollywood itinerary centers on design, dining, and the Pacific Design Center, the address makes logistical sense.
West Hollywood, United States
Public West Hollywood sits in the city’s California coastal dining lane, a format defined less by formality than by an easy relationship between produce, seafood, daylight, and design.

West Hollywood, United States

In a corridor of the city better known for scene than substance, it operates as a reference point for anyone who wants something more considered in the glass.
West Hollywood, United States
Bar Lubitsch on Santa Monica Boulevard is one of West Hollywood's most enduring late-night bars, drawing a loyal crowd with its Russian-inflected spirit program and dimly lit, velvet-draped interior.

West Hollywood, United States
Barney's Beanery sits in West Hollywood's older, louder bar tradition rather than the city's newer reservation-led cocktail tier.

West Hollywood, United States
On the Sunset Strip where the power-lunch tradition meets late-night ambition, BOA Steakhouse at 9200 Sunset Blvd occupies a tier of West Hollywood dining where the bar program and the kitchen operate as equals.

West Hollywood, United States

West Hollywood, United States
Employees Only brings the New York original's speakeasy-era aesthetic and serious cocktail program to Santa Monica Boulevard, operating as one of West Hollywood's more deliberately atmospheric bar destinations.

West Hollywood, United States
Perched above the Sunset Strip on the roof of West Hollywood's EDITION hotel, this open-air bar trades on elevation and atmosphere in equal measure. The daytime experience runs quieter and more considered, while evenings shift toward a scene-conscious crowd and cocktail-led programming. It sits in the upper tier of Sunset-adjacent rooftop drinking, where the view functions as part of the offering.
West Hollywood, United States
On the Sunset Strip where spectacle has long been the default setting, The Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel operates at a different register, measured, loaded with Old Hollywood atmosphere, and frequented by an industry crowd that values discretion over display. It sits closer to the classic Los Angeles supper club tradition than to the cocktail-forward bars reshaping West Hollywood's drinking scene.
West Hollywood, United States
On Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, Zinqué occupies the overlap between Parisian wine-bar culture and the California habit of drinking outdoors after dark. The mood is unhurried, the crowd well-dressed without being formal, and the drink program leans on natural wine and aperitif-forward pours rather than the elaborate cocktail theatrics that dominate nearby stretches of Sunset.
