Best Mediterranean Lunch in Los Angeles: Kabab & More
When you’re craving tender, juicy kababs sizzling with authentic Persian flavor, look no further than Kabab & More.

Best Indian Lunch in Los Angeles: Urban Masala
There are a billion places to grab a bite in Hollywood, but only one that serves up Indian food in a casual, counter-serve venue. Urban Masala offers a variety of made-to-order menu options with speedy service and a smile. Plus, your favorite Indian dish can be prepared however you want it: as a plate, bowl, salad or naan wrap. It’s like Chipotle, but better.
Best Asian Lunch in Los Angeles: Sushi Koo
It can be hard to find an affordable lunch spot in Los Angeles – especially when you’re craving sushi. But at Sushi Koo, even budget-conscious Angelenos can fill up on sashimi, miso soup and maki rolls without breaking the bank. Quick, clean and convenient, Sushi Koo is the restaurant of choice for the best Japanese fare in town.
Best Mexican Lunch in Los Angeles: La Flor de Yucatán
La Flor de Yucatán is a family-owned bakery serving up a tantalizing menu of Mayan cuisine and pastries from its café in Pico-Union. Most famous for its cochinita pibil (slow roasted pork) and panuchos (fried tortillas with black beans), La Flor de Yucatán offers a refreshing take on Mexican cuisine with friendly service to boot.
Best American Lunch in Los Angeles: Carvery Kitchen
When your tummy is rumbling, sometimes a hearty sandwich is the only thing that can fill the void. That’s where Carvery Kitchen swoops in with protein-packed deli grub smothered in savory sauces. Think smoked pastrami brisket with peppercorn au jus, and hand carved turkey breast with roasted tomato jam. All sandwiches are made-to-order and served on toasted ciabatta.
