The 15 Hottest New Restaurants in Los Angeles, August 2024

"Ladyhawk chef Charbel Hayek has followed up his first restaurant with this mostly outdoor restaurant in Hollywood called Laya (not to be confused with Layla, another modern Levantine-inspired spot in Santa Monica). Laya’s crowd-friendly menu centers around kebab skewers, like wagyu beef, Australian lamb, or ancho chile-covered octopus, served alongside a wide array of mezze. The ambience lends itself to plenty of drinks, like Lebanese wine by the glass or the Union cocktail, a mezcal and cantaloupe drink sporting an Aleppo pepper rim. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff
