Los Angeles can turn Thanksgiving takeout into a logistics exercise. A terrific turkey is less appealing after 75 minutes cooling in traffic between Pasadena and Santa Monica, so start with geography before deciding whose stuffing sounds best.
The other question is how much work you want to do on Thursday. Nearly everything here needs some reheating, from about 35 minutes for a dinner for two to four hours for a big bird, but several kitchens hand food over on Thanksgiving Day so it never spends a night in your fridge. We sorted every option by that, along with serving sizes, pickup windows, delivery and how complete the meal really is.
The range runs from chef-driven menus at Superba, Joan's on Third and Huckleberry to peach-wood-smoked turkey from Maple Block, barbecue from Bludso's, a vegan feast from Kitchen Mouse and halal catering from Carthage Kitchen. Prices are before tax, delivery fees and gratuity unless noted. If you'd rather book a table, see our guide to Los Angeles restaurants open on Thanksgiving.

Complete Thanksgiving Dinners to Order in Los Angeles
These kitchens can cover the whole table, from the bird to the pie. Most hand food over chilled before the holiday; Superba, Huckleberry, Farmshop, Maple Block, Bludso's and Kismet also do Thanksgiving Day pickup. If a nearby store matters more than the menu, Bristol Farms runs a holiday program at most of its LA locations. Maple Block also runs one of Culver City's best weekday deals, in our guide to the best happy hours in Los Angeles.
Superba Food + Bread
6530 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028, USA
Five cafés make Superba the easiest restaurant-quality order to keep close to home, and full orders are collected on Thanksgiving Day itself. The rosemary-honey-brined Mary's turkey comes as a half bird ($115, serves four to six) or whole ($210, serves 10 to 12), with a $105 glazed ham as the alternative. Build around the vegan mushroom-and-leek stuffing, mashed Yukon Golds, brown butter green beans, gravy, cranberry-orange chutney and one pie. Details: Pickup at Hollywood, Venice, North Hollywood, Pasadena or Calabasas. Small sides $35–43 (serve four to six), large $65–76 (serve 10 to 12); pies $57–59; Parker House rolls $23 a dozen. Order and pick a pickup slot through Tock. The cafés also open 7–11 a.m. on Thanksgiving for pie, bread and pastries to go; North Hollywood handles pre-order pickups only that morning.
Joan's on Third
8350 W 3rd St, Los Angeles, CA 90048, USA
Joan's lets you assemble the whole menu in one stop, then collect it from a drive-through behind the store. A whole organic roasted turkey is $190 and turkey breast is $150, each for six to eight. Turkey breast, bacon-and-herb stuffing, corn pudding and the rustic apple pie make a strong table, and vegan farro with wild mushrooms covers plant-based guests. Details: Also mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, mac and cheese, cranberry sauce, gravy, Parker House rolls, and pumpkin and pecan pies. Order by noon Friday, Nov. 20; pickup Wednesday, Nov. 25, 8 a.m.–4 p.m. Closed Thanksgiving.
Huckleberry Bakery & Café
1014 Wilshire Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90401, USA
A new chef refreshed Huckleberry's holiday menu this year, and Thanksgiving Day pickup means nothing has to sit in your fridge overnight. Expect Mary's free-range turkey with braised leek and celery stuffing, "Marry Me" mashed potatoes, baked mac and cheese, sweet potato casserole and blistered haricots verts, then pumpkin pie, chocolate pecan pie or apple tarte Tatin. The next-day leftover sandwich kit is a smart add-on. Details: Prices appear in the Toast order builder. Orders close 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 19; pickup is Thanksgiving Day. A separate Friendsgiving menu covers other dates.
Farmshop
225 26th St #25, Santa Monica, CA 90402, USA
Farmshop suits hosts cooking one or two signature dishes and filling in the rest, since the holiday menu is à la carte: classic sides, traditional mains and pies baked in house. Thursday pickup is a real advantage in Brentwood and Santa Monica. Details: Menu and prices in the Toast ordering flow. Pickup Wednesday, Nov. 25, or Thursday, Nov. 26; order at least 48 hours ahead.
Prose Kitchen & Bar
21150 Ventura Blvd, Woodland Hills, CA 91364, USA
Prose turns takeout into a dinner party for the Valley. Mary's turkey comes two ways, miso-maple-glazed breast and confit dark meat, with cornbread-and-sage sausage stuffing, Gruyère potato gratin, hot-honey sweet potatoes, milk bread with date butter and apple-cranberry cobbler. Details: $425 for four to six or $795 for eight to 12; short ribs, extra sides and a plant-based mushroom birria can be added. Order by Nov. 22; pickup Nov. 25, noon–5 p.m.
Eataly Los Angeles
10250 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90067, USA
Eataly layers Italian touches onto the usual spread: mushroom lasagna, porchetta stuffing, broccoli rabe and tiramisù sit next to the whole turkey, sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce. The $299 full dinner serves six to eight. Details: $149 turkey-breast dinner for four; $169 baked-salmon dinner for four; whole turkey à la carte $129.99. Pickup and delivery run before Thanksgiving, so plan fridge space and reheating.
Little Flower Candy Co.
1424 W Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91105, USA
Pasadena households that want turkey breast rather than a whole bird should look here first. The compound-butter breast is $100 and serves eight to 10, with ham ($90) and take-and-bake prime rib ($94) as alternatives. Details: Whipped potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, sweet potatoes and green beans; pumpkin pie $40, apple crumble $45. Orders close 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15, the earliest dinner deadline here; pickup Wednesday, Nov. 25, 8 a.m.–3 p.m. Closed Thanksgiving.
Bludso's BBQ
609 N La Brea Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90036, USA
Smoked turkey arrives with real barbecue sides at Bludso's: collards, sweet potato mash and cornbread stuffing. The whole smoked-turkey combo is $299; the smoked-breast combo is $229, fried turkey $319 and smoked ham $299. Details: Pickup at La Brea, Santa Monica or Van Nuys.

Thanksgiving Pies, Bread and Sides in Los Angeles
If dinner is already covered, these are worth a separate stop. Order early: the specialists close before most dinner menus do.
Jyan Isaac Bread
1620 Ocean Park Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90405, USA
Order Jyan Isaac's Parker House rolls even if dinner comes from somewhere else. A few minutes in the oven just before the meal gives the table one unmistakably fresh element, and seasonal pies are on the holiday menu too. Details: Preorder by Tuesday, Nov. 17.

Fat + Flour
11739 W Washington Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90066, USA
Nicole Rucker's pie shop takes Thanksgiving preorders through a dedicated online shop, and the most popular flavors go quickly. Reserve rather than counting on a day-before walk-in. Details: Flavors, prices and pickup slots are listed in the preorder shop.
How to Order Without Creating a New Problem
- Audit the oven. Read every dish's reheating time and temperature, then plan rack space; a dinner for 12 can need four hours. Write the times on each container and stack them in cooking order.
- Treat serving sizes as a starting point. Plan for seconds, leftovers and extra gravy rather than assuming eight advertised portions suit eight big eaters.
- Use cold dishes strategically. Salad, cranberry relish and room-temperature appetizers take pressure off the oven.
