About 870 Restaurants Participate, Including More Than 20 Korean-Owned Eateries
Prix-Fixe Menus Start at $15 Through February 6
Los Angeles’ signature dining event, Dine LA Restaurant Week, has officially kicked off its Winter 2026 edition, featuring participation from more than 20 Korean-owned restaurants.
The two-week event runs through February 6, highlighting Los Angeles as a world-class culinary destination while showcasing the city’s diverse food cultures.
Held twice a year in winter and summer, Dine LA Restaurant Week brings together hundreds of local restaurants offering special prix-fixe lunch and dinner menus at set prices. This winter, approximately 870 restaurants are participating, a slight increase from last summer’s event.
While Korean restaurants have traditionally been underrepresented, participation has grown significantly this year. More than 20 Korean eateries are taking part—nearly three times as many as during last summer’s Dine LA. Participating restaurants include Gabin Korean Grill, Chung Ki Wa, Soban, and ICHA, among others.
Korean restaurant owners say the event comes at an opportune time, as global attention on Los Angeles continues to grow ahead of the upcoming World Cup. Many see Dine LA as a valuable opportunity to introduce Korean cuisine to out-of-state and international visitors, while also testing signature dishes that could become permanent menu items.
No tickets or passes are required to participate. Diners simply visit a participating restaurant and request the Dine LA Restaurant Week menu, allowing them to try new dishes or enjoy favorites at discounted prices. Organizers strongly recommend making reservations in advance due to high demand during the event.
Prix-fixe menus for both lunch and dinner are offered at $15, $25, $35, $45, $55, and $65 and above. Prices and meal periods vary by restaurant and do not include beverages, tax, or gratuity.
Organizers note that menu offerings may change depending on ingredient availability and advise diners to confirm details directly with restaurants before making reservations. The “$65 and above” category may include higher-priced menus—such as $75, $99, or $114—making it important to verify pricing in advance.
Reservations can be made through the official Dine LA website at discoverlosangeles.com/dinela or by contacting restaurants directly. For the Winter 2026 event, dine-in service only is available.
Dine LA organizers added that additional restaurants and menus may be introduced throughout the event and encouraged diners to check for updates regularly.
