Restaurants in Brentwood

Baltaire is a mid-century modern steakhouse in Brentwood with a serious wine list — 4,695 bottles, 3-Star World of Fine Wine accreditation — and an open-air terrace that makes it the neighborhood's most considered choice for a long lunch or wine-forward dinner at the $$$ tier. Rated 4.5 on Google across 960 reviews and ranked #505 on OAD Casual North America 2025.

Katsu-ya on San Vicente is one of the stronger arguments for serious Japanese dining on LA's West Side, ranked #297 on the Opinionated About Dining Top Restaurants in North America list in 2025. Dinner-only with easy booking, it works well for a special occasion without the weeks-in-advance commitment that other OAD-listed venues require. A reliable choice if Japanese precision is the priority.
