"Stephanie Izard’s Los Angeles outpost of Chicago’s Girl and the Goat operates out of a stunning space filled with plants and light wood in the Arts District. Known for its family-style menu that takes inspiration from around the globe, the restaurant serves a barbecue pork belly with crab butter and goat curry with masa chips. Hamachi poke is paired with fermented tofu, while bass is basted with a Sichuan sauce. Save room for mango sticky rice with mango tamarind ice cream or miso pineapple cake to round out a meal here." - Rebecca Roland
