Karuba's Yardy Kitchen

Where To Have Dinner When Your Family Visits LA

"There’s nothing worse than an over-complicated meal with a visiting family (trust us, your dad does not want to get hit with a reservation cancellation fee), so make things simple and head to Karuba’s Yardy Kitchen. This Jamaican restaurant in Inglewood is one of the neighborhood’s most popular spots, known for their fantastic oxtails that come in a thick, fragrant gravy and sweet, smoky jerk chicken. Pair either with a side of roasted plantains, rice, or beans and make it a combo for just $12.99. It’s a small price to pay to avoid seeing your dad scream at the OpenTable app for upwards of an hour." - kat hong
