A Feast for All Senses with a Side of Giving Back
The West Hollywood Travel and Tourism Board, better known as Visit West Hollywood, has cooked up something special this year. Instead of just a week of culinary adventures, they’re serving a full month of foodie heaven through 3/31. But what makes this year’s event truly exceptional is its charitable flavor.
For every dine-in reservation made in West Hollywood during March, Visit West Hollywood will donate $1 to Restaurants Care (up to $10,000). This initiative aims to provide much-needed assistance to food and beverage workers affected by the recent Los Angeles wildfires. It’s a perfect recipe for combining culinary pleasure with community support.
“We are thrilled for the return of Eat + Drink West Hollywood, this time with a meaningful twist—focused on giving back to those who need it most,” says Tom Kiely, President & CEO of Visit West Hollywood. “We’ve partnered with Restaurant Cares, an organization deeply connected to the hospitality community in our city, to support those in the food and beverage industry who have been directly impacted by the recent fires. Dine in West Hollywood and give back – every reservation helps!”

Why West Hollywood Continues to Simmer with Culinary Innovation
Nestled in the cultural and geographic heart of Los Angeles, West Hollywood has been a hotbed for culinary innovation for over four decades. Despite its compact size of just 1.9 square miles, this vibrant city packs a flavorful punch with world-class cocktail bars, renowned restaurants, and emerging culinary talents. The city’s walkable layout makes it easy for food enthusiasts to hop from one delicious destination to another.
West Hollywood’s reputation as a culinary hub isn’t just about the food—it’s about the experience. The city’s three main districts each offer a unique flavor:
- The world-famous Sunset Strip with its unparalleled nightlife
- The eclectic and LGBTQ-friendly Santa Monica Boulevard
- The Design District known for its sought-after shopping and dining experiences
About Restaurants Care: Nourishing the Industry During Tough Times
The beneficiary of this year’s event, Restaurants Care, is a nonprofit relief fund that provides financial assistance to California restaurant workers facing unforeseen hardships. Established to support the industry’s workforce, the fund helps cover essential living expenses during times of crisis.
The initiative was inspired by the restaurant community’s response to a Sacramento cook who survived a life-threatening accident, highlighting the need for a long-term safety net. By dining in West Hollywood this March, you’re not just satisfying your taste buds—you’re helping to ensure that restaurant workers receive support when they need it most.
