The Eater 38 needs an overhaul every once in a while, and this time around, the highly elite group of restaurants that represents of variety of cuisines and culinary styles has gotten a complete refresh. Spanning Westside to Eastside, with eateries clustered around the best dining neighborhoods, this collection aims to answer the question, “Can you recommend a restaurant?” Eater will continue to update restaurants every few months, adding in eligible places that have been open for at least six months. Remember, each establishment is listed alphabetically, not in order of preference or quality.

 Din Tai Fung Dumpling House #3
This international dumpling and noodle purveyor still makes some of the most solid Chinese food in the city, though with three locations to pick from (two essentially next to each other in Arcadia), it´s hard not to opt for this spot in Glendale. It´s right in the Americana, making longer waits easier to deal with, plus the ambiance is much nicer than the other spots. Get those famous xiao long bao dumplings and don´t look back.
