Helping great local restaurants get found.
A Los Angeles community project.
Restaurant owners can apply too.
Good food finds good people.
About
Why To Be Found exists.
Los Angeles is full of independently owned restaurants with incredible food, hardworking people, and stories worth sharing.
But when rent, ingredients, payroll, and daily operations come first, design and marketing often have to come last.
TO BE FOUND helps selected restaurants get the creative support and visibility they deserve.
