Try This Culver City Michelin Restaurant For Easter Sunday

CULVER CITY, CA — Easter’s a holy day, but if you want to feel like you’ve truly ascended to heaven, consider eating at four SoCal restaurants that were recently added to the prestigious Michelin Guide for 2025, including one amazing sushi spot in Culver City.

The Michelin Guide added seven new SoCal restaurants in March, but just four are open for Easter. While you can currently make online reservations for Sunday, April 20, it’s still best to call ahead to double check. Business hours and phone numbers are included below.

1. Kusano: Culver City

Pack into this cozy restaurant, where the chef is also a waiter and a bartender. He still finds time to make some of the best sushi in SoCal, including innovative offerings like the Hokkaido uni draped with a thin slice of squid.
10726 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City. Phone number unavailable. Open Wednesday to Monday from 6-9 p.m. Reserve here.

2. Rasarumah: Los Angeles (Rampart Village)

This innovative Chinese-Malaysian restaurant from Chef Jonny Lee offers delicious, exotic meals like steamed eggplant with sambal and dried shrimp, or ulama bendi with charred okra. Michelin judges particularly appreciated the beef rendang in curry accompanied by buttery roti, and the cendol sundae dessert.

3107 Beverly Boulevard, Los Angeles. 213-567-3547. Open 5-10 p.m. Thursday to Monday. Reserve here.

3. Restaurant Ki: Downtown Los Angeles

This restaurant offers an exciting new take on Korean food, and specializes in expertly-prepared meats. Enjoy barbecue-roasted squab with foie gras sauce, and 45-day dry-aged dairy cow with golden beet jus and Korean bone broth, complemented by unusual desserts like a mushroom ice cream sandwich.

4. Tomat: Los Angeles (Westchester)

The name says it all: this restaurant specializes in seasonal, farm-fresh California cuisine with an upscale twist. Enjoy zesty items like barbari bread with roasted tomato powder-dusted butter or charred seasonal vegetables over a smooth ajo blanco. Judges especially appreciated the duck, which is “deftly cooked with crispy skin.”
