The 17 Best Hidden Gem Restaurants in Los Angeles

"This low-key Taiwanese, Shanghainese, and Cantonese restaurant in Lomita has quietly been serving some of the South Bay’s best Chinese fare, including crisp-peppery fried fish filets and $6 bowls of lu rou fan. The special chow mein noodles come studded with chicken strips and whole shrimp, while a plate of flash-fried string beans puts some green on the table. The prices are affordable and the parking is easy, but drive too quickly and one will miss the strip mall completely." - Eater Staff
