The 17 Best Hidden Gem Restaurants in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"Anaheim’s famed House of Mandi, one of the only places to get Yemeni food in Southern California, expanded to a prime Westwood location serving much of the same menu in a cavernous but well-appointed dining room. Half the space offers more communal dining where patrons take off their shoes and sit on traditional low-flung tables. Bring a crew and order the roast lamb served over fragrant mandi rice. The pull-off-the-bone lamb offers all the varied Yemeni spices like cloves, cinnamon, coriander, and cardamom while a cooling yogurt sauce brings every bite together. Other dishes are worth ordering as well, like oven-roasted mova fish and mashed fava bean foul, all amplified by whopping rounds of freshly baked flatbread." - Eater Staff
