The 17 Best LA Restaurants For A Big Group Dinner - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Not every group dinner equates to a splashy night out with friends who don’t go to bed until 3am. Sometimes it means meals with extended family from multiple generations. If that’s the case, make it easy and go to Carlitos Gardel. This old-school Argentinian steakhouse has been operating in the Fairfax/Melrose area for decades and is our go-to spot for giant platters of meat, never-ending red wine, and waitstaff who’ll probably recognize your grandparents from the grocery store. The indoor dining room has multiple big round tables, but if you’re rolling deep, snag a reservation on the string-lit back patio." - brant cox
