Beverly Hills and the Westside
The heaviest concentration of big-occasion Thanksgivings in the city, mostly in hotel dining rooms. Prices run highest here, but so does the sense of event. Lawry's and the Polo Lounge are also in our guide to the best old-school Hollywood restaurants.
Lawry's The Prime Rib
100 N La Cienega Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211, USA
Lawry's is the move when your table cares more about prime rib than turkey. The holiday menu covers both: a full turkey plate with stuffing, gravy and cranberry, turkey-and-prime-rib combinations and the usual carved cuts. Salmon, sea bass and a vegetarian roast take care of everyone else. Details: 11 a.m.–9 p.m., with takeout pickup 11 a.m.–4 p.m. 2026 pricing is expected in early November.
Polo Lounge
9641 Sunset Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, USA
The Pink Palace does Thanksgiving as a full splurge. Starters like baked brie and a chilled seafood trio lead into heritage turkey, saffron seafood risotto, braised short rib, salmon or porcini pappardelle. The finish is a dessert buffet with pies, a churro station and made-to-order crêpes, and there's a separate kids' menu. Details: $280 per adult, with an optional $150 wine pairing. Tax and service are extra. Reservation times vary.
The Restaurant at Hotel Bel-Air
701 Stone Canyon Rd, Los Angeles, CA 90077, USA
The quieter, more tucked-away alternative to the Beverly Hills scene. Heritage turkey with all the trimmings anchors the menu, with options like New York strip, beef cheek, hamachi and sunchoke agnolotti, then pumpkin, pecan, apple and chocolate desserts. Details: 11 a.m.–8 p.m. $295 for adults, $95 for kids 12 and under.
THE Blvd
9500 Wilshire Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90212, USA
A dressed-up three-course meal at Wilshire and Rodeo, with live music through the afternoon. The turkey plate comes with a turkey-leg pie and cornbread-chestnut stuffing, and short rib, smoked chicken roulade and a vegan cauliflower curry round out the mains. Details: Noon–9 p.m., live music noon–4 p.m. $195 for adults, $65 for kids 6–12. Gratuity is added automatically.
The Belvedere
9882 S Santa Monica Blvd Ground Floor, Beverly Hills, CA 90212, USA
For a luxury-hotel Thanksgiving without a buffet line or a stage show. Three composed courses center on organic herb-roasted turkey, with seasonal starters and classic desserts like apple pie, in a room that feels like an occasion without trying too hard. Details: 11 a.m.–7 p.m. $210 for adults, $95 for kids 12 and under, plus tax and service.
Culina
300 S Doheny Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90048, USA
The biggest spread on this list. The Four Seasons buffet pairs Thanksgiving staples with dishes from a range of cuisines, a serious dessert spread and live entertainment all day. It's the easy answer for a big multigenerational group where no single set menu will please everyone. Details: Noon–7 p.m. $250 for adults, $125 for kids, plus tax.
Costa Covo Osteria
9291 Burton Wy, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, USA
The best family math at the luxury end: kids under 12 eat free. Adults get heritage turkey with cornbread stuffing and a holiday dessert trio, and a short à la carte menu covers anyone who'd rather skip the holiday plate. It's dinner only, which suits families who want the afternoon at home first. Details: 5–10 p.m. $150 per adult; kids under 12 free.
Spago
176 N Canon Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, USA
Wolfgang Puck's flagship gives Thanksgiving the same care as any other big night there. The four-course format works best for couples, adult groups and milestone dinners rather than a crowd that wants seconds of stuffing. Details: Seatings 2–7 p.m. $245 for adults, $145 for kids.
Sirocco
11461 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90049, USA
One of the cleanest deals on the Westside. $95 covers smoked salmon blini, soup or salad, a choice of turkey, New York steak or salmon, your pick of pies or bread pudding, and soft drinks and coffee, on a hotel property tucked into seven acres off Sunset. Details: Noon–8 p.m. $95 for adults, $65 for kids under 12.

Hollywood, Los Feliz and Downtown
The widest range on the list: a century-old institution, two of the city's best chef-driven rooms, a Brazilian party and the easiest budget options around L.A. Live.
Tam O'Shanter
2980 Los Feliz Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90039, USA
At 100 years, the Tam is LA's oldest restaurant run by the same family in the same spot, and its wood-paneled rooms feel built for Thanksgiving. The menu lets the table split between roast turkey and the house prime rib, with traditional sides and holiday desserts. Details: Dine-in 10:30 a.m.–9 p.m.; takeout pickup 9 a.m.–noon. Reservations are open now, and pricing posts in early November.
Gwen
6600 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028, USA
Curtis Stone's butcher shop and steakhouse does a four-course turkey-and-ham dinner with duck-fat fried potatoes, cranberry jam and apple pie. Pick it when the group wants a modern room and serious cooking over hotel ceremony. Details: November 26 only, with evening reservations. $183.60 per person, prepaid.
Redbird
114 E 2nd St, Los Angeles, CA 90012, USA
Neal Fraser's restaurant at Vibiana is the best bet for a Thanksgiving that still feels like a great night out in LA. Three courses mix holiday classics with Fraser's own standbys in one of downtown's best-looking dining rooms. Details: Reservations 1–7 p.m. $125 per person, plus tax and service; supplements available.
Casa Ipanema
501 S Olive St, Los Angeles, CA 90013, USA
For friends who'd rather turn the day into a night out. The Rio-inspired room runs live DJs and fire performances, and on Thanksgiving it adds a $45 holiday meal with a champagne toast alongside the regular Brazilian menu. Details: Noon–9 p.m. $45 holiday special; the regular dinner menu runs all day.
Sendero at The Ritz-Carlton Los Angeles
900 W Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90015, USA
The Ritz-Carlton's annual holiday brunch buffet, on the hotel's 24th floor above downtown. Expect carving stations, seafood, farmers market salads, desserts and a spread for kids. Its spot by L.A. Live makes it a practical middle point for family coming in from different parts of the city. Details: Brunch buffet, booked through Leña at Sendero. 2026 price and hours not yet posted.
Fleming's Prime Steakhouse
800 W Olympic Blvd Suite A-135, Los Angeles, CA 90015, USA
The fix for a table split between turkey people and steak people. The prix fixe starts with salad or lobster bisque, then turkey ($64), petite filet ($78) or a 20-ounce bone-in ribeye ($95), with stuffing, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce to share. The full dinner menu runs all day, and there's a three-course kids' menu. Details: 11 a.m.–8 p.m. From $64.
Lazy Dog
800 W Olympic Blvd A-180, Los Angeles, CA 90015, USA
The low-stress family option. $39 covers soup or salad, a turkey dinner or a Lazy Dog favorite like pot roast or ginger soy salmon, and pumpkin caramel cheesecake or banana pudding. There's a kids' menu and a full bar. Details: 11 a.m.–8 p.m. $39 per person.
H&H Brazilian Steakhouse (Downtown)
518 W 7th St, Los Angeles, CA 90014, USA
Churrasco with a Thanksgiving detour. Gauchos carve 18 tableside selections, from picanha to lamb chops, and the holiday adds roast turkey, sweet potato casserole, gravy and cranberry sauce to the cheese bread, feijoada and 25-plus-item farm table. Also at 8500 Beverly Blvd. Details: Both locations noon–9 p.m., dine-in only. 2026 price not yet posted.
Santa Monica, Malibu and the Canyons
Ocean views on one side, creekside and mountain dining rooms on the other. If the view is the point, book early: the sun sets around 4:45 p.m. in late November.
Orla
1700 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90401, USA
Michael Mina's Mediterranean take, built for families who want the whole day handled. Shared mezze, a choice of entrée and family-style desserts come with a welcome drink. Add-ons include a family photo by the hotel's tree and menorah, and kids get a Letters to Santa station. Details: 1–8 p.m. $240++ for adults, $75++ for kids.
FIG
101 Wilshire Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90401, USA
A calmer alternative to the big beachfront-hotel productions. Parker House rolls and maple butternut squash soup lead to classic turkey or braised short rib with truffled brown-butter potatoes, and dessert is pumpkin mousse cake or chocolate pecan tart. Details: Dinner 1–9 p.m. $120++ per person.
Carbon Beach Club
22878 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265, USA
The best value-to-view ratio in the guide, right on Carbon Beach. Three courses run from radicchio salad or lobster bisque to turkey, prime rib or Dungeness crab bucatini, then pumpkin pie or cereal-milk panna cotta. Grab a 4 p.m. table to eat while there's still light on the water. Details: 4–9 p.m. $110 per person.
Geoffrey's Malibu
27400 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265, USA
The ocean-view pick for a group that won't agree on turkey. Mains include turkey, scallops, salmon, filet, crispy duck and a vegan, gluten-free tofu dish with five kinds of mushrooms, with a 12-ounce New York strip as an upgrade. Details: All day. $98 for three courses; kids 12 and under get two courses for $72. A small surcharge and valet are added.
Inn of the Seventh Ray
128 Old Topanga Canyon Rd, Topanga, CA 90290, USA
The canyon escape, and the best table for a group split between vegan and traditional eaters. Both four-course menus are served creekside under the sycamores at the same price: apple-cider-brined Mary's turkey on one, apple-cider-brined faux turkey on the other, each with chestnut stuffing, maple yams and Brussels sprouts. Details: $96 for adults (traditional or vegan), $48 for kids 12 and under. Indoor and outdoor seating.
Saddle Peak Lodge
419 Cold Canyon Rd, Calabasas, CA 91302, USA
A rustic lodge in the Santa Monica Mountains that feels far from the city without the holiday drive. Four courses offer a turkey dinner with roasted breast and leg confit, New Zealand elk tenderloin, salmon or a cauliflower steak. It's especially good for couples and small groups. Details: $125 for adults; kids 12 and under get a main and dessert for $55. Service charge added.
The Valley
Lower prices and easier parking. Two of these are hilltop brunches, so plan on eating early.
The Front Yard
4222 Vineland Ave, North Hollywood, CA 91602, USA
A chef-curated buffet for less than most of the city's big holiday spreads. It's casual enough for kids and runs all afternoon, so you're not boxed into a brunch window. Details: Noon–8 p.m. $95 for adults, $45 for kids 12 and under, plus service.
Castaway
1250 E Harvard Rd, Burbank, CA 91501, USA
A hilltop brunch looking out over Burbank to the Los Angeles skyline. It's the call for families who want to eat early and keep the evening free. Window tables aren't guaranteed, so book early if the view matters. Details: Brunch on November 26. $98++ per adult.
Odyssey
15600 Odyssey Dr, Granada Hills, CA 91344, USA
The same idea as Castaway with a wider sweep of the San Fernando Valley. The three-course brunch opens with shared starters and raw bar, then herb-roasted turkey, lobster Benedict, surf and turf or chicken and waffles, with family-style desserts. Details: Brunch. $89++ for adults, $35 for kids; bottomless mimosas $30.
Black Angus
235 S Ikea Way, Burbank, CA 91502, USA
The no-fuss budget pick. $29.99 gets the whole plate: turkey, sage dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, broccoli, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, salad and pumpkin pie. Steaks and prime rib stay on a limited holiday menu, and everything's available to go. Details: 11 a.m.–9 p.m. $29.99 for adults, $12.99 for kids. Dine-in or takeout.
Pasadena
Two very different historic settings: a cottage restaurant with patios, and a grand hotel with four ways to do the day.
The Raymond 1886
1250 S Fair Oaks Ave, Pasadena, CA 91105, USA
A historic cottage with garden patios that feels more like someone's home than a restaurant. Turkey, prime rib, horseradish-crusted salmon and roasted kabocha squash come with family-style sides and dessert. It lands neatly between a big hotel meal and a neighborhood dinner. Details: Seatings 11 a.m.–8 p.m. $99 for adults, $49 for kids 10 and under, plus tax and gratuity.
The Langham Huntington
1401 S Oak Knoll Ave, Pasadena, CA 91106, USA
Four Thanksgivings under one roof, so you can pick the format and the hour: a Huntington Ballroom brunch buffet with live music (noon–4 p.m., $235), a four-course dinner at The Royce (3:30–8 p.m., $230), a Terrace brunch buffet (7 a.m.–4 p.m., $175) or a Terrace four-course dinner (6–9 p.m., $145). Details: Adult prices shown, plus tax and gratuity. Kids' pricing varies by venue.
