Dine LA Is Back and SUSHISAMBA Is Bringing the Heat to Restaurant Week

There are plenty of good reasons to dine out in Los Angeles right now but Dine LA gives you an especially tempting one. For a limited time, some of the city's most talked-about restaurants are offering curated prix-fixe menus that make it easier to try somewhere new or finally make a reservation at the place you've been eyeing.

Running August 14 through August 28, 2026, this summer's Dine LA Restaurant Week brings more than 400 restaurants across Los Angeles County into the mix, representing 26 cuisines and 84 neighborhoods. The idea is simple, discover a new restaurant, revisit an old favorite and eat very well while doing it.

One of the more exciting additions to the L.A. dining scene this year is SUSHISAMBA Los Angeles, the expansive rooftop restaurant in West Hollywood's Design District. The Los Angeles outpost opened in March, bringing the brand's signature fusion dining of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cooking to a dramatic rooftop overlooking the Hollywood Hills.

For Dine LA, SUSHISAMBA is offering a four-course, $55-per-person lunch, served sharing-style from noon to 4 p.m.

The meal begins with pão de queijo with honey truffle butter and green bean tempura with black truffle aioli, followed by a choice of dishes that includes Japanese A5 Kobe gyoza with kabocha purée and sweet soy, crispy yellowtail taquitos with avocado, miso, spicy aji panca sauce and fresh lime, and the Classico seviche, pairing white fish with sweet potato, cancha, plantain chips and coconut leche de tigre.

The second portion of the Dine LA menu brings sea bass anticuchos with miso and Peruvian corn, chicken a la brasa with aji amarillo aioli, and the Asevichado Roll, combining tuna, salmon, yellowtail and white fish with avocado, cucumber, red onion, sweet potato, cancha corn and aji amarillo leche de tigre.

Dessert is the appropriately indulgent finale of a chocolate banana cake with maple butter, plantain chip and vanilla rum ice cream.

For $55, it is a great sampling of the SUSHISAMBA kitchen, and the sharing format makes it ideal for a lunch with friends when everyone wants to try a little bit of everything.

SUSHISAMBA's 11,000-square-foot rooftop was designed by Dizon Collective with inspiration from Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx, incorporating flowing forms, greenery and social spaces that make the restaurant feel more like a destination than a hotel rooftop dining room. A retractable roof allows the space to shift with the weather, while the rooftop opens toward sweeping views of the Hollywood Hills.

That setting is especially effective at brunch, when the rooftop feels bright and expansive, and at dinner, when the restaurant takes on a more romantic vibe.

The experience can become even livelier later in the evening. On Fridays and Saturdays, The Late Set brings DJs, bottle service and late-night bites from 11:30 p.m. until close.

Dine LA runs through August 28, so this is one reservation worth making before the prix-fixe menu disappears.
