Burger Lounge
Burger Lounge
Burgers

Sources: 100% grass-fed beef, whole menu, via named supplier Jensen Meats

San Diego-based burger chain with a Beverly Hills location. Their own site names their beef supplier directly: "why wouldn't we use grass-fed beef? Jensen Meats does it best, raising cattle that roam free, without using any antibiotics or hormones." Grass-fed beef is the brand's entire concept, its own tagline calls it "the original grass-fed burger," covering the whole burger menu in their own words.

Erewhon Market
Erewhon Market
Grocery / Hot Bar

Sources: Organic grass-fed beef, specific hot bar and packaged items

Premium grocery with a prepared-foods hot bar, not a sit-down restaurant. Their own product and hot-bar pages name specific grass-fed items, including "Organic Grass-Fed Beef NY Steak," "Grass-Fed Ground Beef 85/15," and hot-bar Korean BBQ short ribs and steak sold by the pound. This is a claim about those specific items, not the whole store. Venice location.

Goldburger
Goldburger
Burgers

Sources: 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef, whole menu, via named supplier Cream Co Meats

Burger-only concept in Los Feliz. Their About page names the actual supplier: "In 2023 we partnered with Cream Co Meats to further improve our sourcing by using exclusively 100% Grass-Fed AND Grass-Finished beef from California ranches practicing regenerative agriculture for every single burger made at Goldburger." A named-supplier, whole-kitchen claim in their own words, since burgers are the only thing they serve.

HiHo Cheeseburger
HiHo Cheeseburger
Burgers

Sources: 100% grass-fed, 100% grass-finished Wagyu beef (whole menu)

Burger chain with locations in Santa Monica, Marina del Rey, Pasadena, and Sherman Oaks. Their own site states directly: "HiHo is the only burger restaurant that exclusively serves 100% grass-fed and 100% grass-finished Wagyu," sourced through an exclusive partnership with First Light Farms, an 85-farmer collective in New Zealand, and Certified Humane. A whole-kitchen claim in their own words, covering beef specifically; we found no sourcing claim for their eggs or dairy.

HomeState
HomeState
Texas / Breakfast

Sources: Vital Farms pasture-raised eggs, named breakfast items (all locations)

Texas-inspired kitchen with five LA locations: Highland Park, Hollywood, Playa Vista, West Adams, and Pasadena. A named, dated press release (Jan. 14, 2022) confirms HomeState uses Vital Farms pasture-raised eggs in several of its named breakfast tacos, including the Trinity, Guadalupe, Comal, and Migas, across all locations. Covers named egg dishes, not every item on the broader menu.

Hopdoddy Burger Bar
Hopdoddy Burger Bar
Burgers

Sources: Grass-fed pasture-raised beef and bison, standard menu-wide (chain policy)

Burger chain with a Playa Vista location. Their own sourcing page (not just the menu) lists their standard proteins chain-wide: "Grass fed pasture-raised, wagyu & heritage beef, responsibly raised" and "100% grass fed pasture-raised bison," alongside Vital Farms pasture-raised eggs. This is a standing sourcing policy across the standard menu, not two isolated named burgers, stronger and broader than the menu page alone shows, though still their own statement rather than a named farm or third-party certification.

Lady Byrd Cafe
Lady Byrd Cafe
Cafe / Burgers

Sources: 100% grass-fed beef, named supplier, general beef sourcing

Neighborhood cafe in Echo Park. Their own site's "From the Farm" section names Grass Run Farms as their beef supplier, stating "100% grass-fed beef" as a general sourcing statement, not scoped to one dish. The same section names a chicken supplier (Mary's Free Range Chickens), but that's a free-range poultry claim, not a pasture-raised egg or grass-fed beef claim, so we've left it out here.

Matū
Matū
Steakhouse

Sources: 100% grass-fed, grass-finished Wagyu (whole menu)

All-Wagyu steakhouse in Beverly Hills. Their own site states the restaurant is "exclusively serving 100% grass-fed Wagyu from First Light Farms," the same New Zealand farming collective HiHo Cheeseburger sources from. A whole-menu claim in their own words, corroborated by named, dated press (Forbes, July 2023; Robb Report) covering the restaurant's concept.

McConnell's Fine Ice Creams
McConnell's Fine Ice Creams
Ice Cream / Dessert

Sources: Grass-grazed milk and cream, named dairy supplier (all products)

Santa Barbara-founded ice cream maker with Downtown LA, Studio City, Pacific Palisades, and Santa Monica locations. Their product-info page names the actual supplier: "McConnell's has sourced our raw milk & cream from Producers Dairy, The Shehadey Family's 83-year-old dairy, based in Central California," and states that milk is "grass-grazed and hormone and antibiotic free." Covers the dairy base used across their whole ice cream line. Note the exact term used is "grass-grazed," not "grass-fed" or "pasture-raised." We're quoting their language precisely rather than rounding it up.

Slay Steak & Fish House
Slay Steak & Fish House
Steakhouse / Seafood

Sources: Grass-fed beef, general menu-wide statement

Steak and seafood spot in Manhattan Beach. Their own About Us page states: "Our menu boasts cast-iron cooked grass-fed beef, chops, and sustainable seafood." A broad, unelaborated claim, no named farm or specific dish, so we're listing it at our narrowest tier rather than rounding it up.

Smashed Burbank
Smashed Burbank
Burgers

Sources: All natural, grass-fed beef, whole menu

Smash-burger-only concept in Burbank. Their own site states plainly: "we serve all natural, grass-fed beef with no artificial flavors, no preservatives, no hormones, no additives, and everything is non-GMO," worded as a blanket statement about the beef they serve, not scoped to one named item, and beef is the only protein on the menu besides a vegan patty. No named farm or supplier, so this stays below the top tier.

Talo Organic
Talo Organic
Grass-Fed / Organic

Sources: 100% grass-fed, pasture-raised beef tallow and most beef menu items

Regenerative-farm-focused kitchen in Venice's Colony Food Hall. Their own site states their beef comes from small regenerative farms where "the animals spend all of their life on pasture, and they're only fed grass," and confirms the barbacoa tacos use 100% grass-fed and pasture-raised beef, plus grass-fed tallow (no additives) in the fryers and on the grill. Covers most of the beef menu in their own words; no dairy or egg sourcing claim found.

True Food Kitchen
True Food Kitchen
Seasonal / Wellness

Sources: 100% grass-fed beef, chain-wide (all locations)

Fox Restaurant Concepts' wellness-focused chain, with Century City and Pasadena locations. A named, dated trade press report (FSR Magazine, Aug. 29, 2023) quotes Verde Farms' SVP confirming the beef across all 44 True Food Kitchen locations is "100 percent grass-fed on pastures where cattle roam free 100 percent of the time, no feedlots, ever." Covers beef only; we could not independently confirm the exact current wording of any separate egg-sourcing claim on their own site, so that detail is left out.

Frequently asked questions

Are there grass-fed beef restaurants in Los Angeles?

Yes, and the list is longer than you'd expect. Matū (Beverly Hills), HiHo Cheeseburger (Santa Monica, Marina del Rey, Pasadena, Sherman Oaks), and Goldburger (Los Feliz) all name a farm or supplier behind a 100% grass-fed, whole-menu claim: Goldburger via Cream Co Meats, the other two via First Light Farms. Burger Lounge (Beverly Hills) names its supplier, Jensen Meats, for a whole-menu grass-fed claim. Talo Organic (Venice), Hopdoddy (Playa Vista), Lady Byrd Cafe (Echo Park), and Smashed Burbank (Burbank) confirm grass-fed beef across their standard beef offerings in their own words, without a named farm behind the claim. True Food Kitchen (Century City, Pasadena) went 100% grass-fed chain-wide via a Verde Farms partnership. Erewhon (Venice) confirms specific named hot-bar and packaged items, not its whole store. See each listing for exactly what's confirmed and by whom.

Where can I find pasture-raised eggs or grass-fed dairy in Los Angeles?

HomeState, with five LA locations, confirmed via an official Vital Farms partnership that several of its named breakfast tacos use pasture-raised eggs. McConnell's Fine Ice Creams (Downtown LA, Studio City, Pacific Palisades, Santa Monica) states its ice cream uses grass-grazed Central Coast milk and cream. Both are sourced to the restaurant or brand's own statement.
