Black History Month: A List of Black-Owned Food Businesses in Los Angeles

Supporting Black-owned restaurants is a good idea year-round, but Black History Month is a particularly good time to support the community and local businesses.

As we know, right now restaurants and businesses have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. While we try to make all the best decisions about being safe and staying home, we also have to take in consideration our local people of color businesses.
