The Best New Restaurants in Los Angeles According to Eater Editors, March 2025

"One of LA’s best Korean barbecue restaurants, Yangmani, has moved into new digs on Western Avenue in Koreatown, leaving behind its tight space on Olympic Boulevard. The restaurant specializes in gopchang (pig’s intestines) and daechang (marinated beef intestines), alongside a lineup of high quality cuts like rib-eye cap and marinated galbi. The best way to try the house-specialty intestines is in the Chang Combo, which comes with beef intestine, beef mountain tripe, beef large intestine, and beef abomasum. Round out the meal with cold noodles, doenjang jjigae (soybean stew), and Korean-style beef sashimi. Street parking in the area is limited, but Yangmani offers valet. — Rebecca Roland, editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest" - Rebecca Roland, Matthew Kang, Mona Holmes
