3 of Yelp's 'outrageously spicy' foods are from CA restaurants. Where to go
Briefly

Yelp has identified three California restaurants that offer the most outrageously spicy dishes in 2025, with a focus on Los Angeles. One standout is the DTLA Flaming Hot Burrito from Cilantro Lime, which features Flamin' Hot Cheetos, French fries, and various protein options, all while balancing intense heat with flavor. Another contender is Yup Dduk LA, known for its spicy ddukbokki, appealing to those seeking an extreme spice challenge. These establishments are celebrated for their creative and fiery approaches to modern comfort food.
"It's a dish that combines heat, flavor and a little bit of madness," owner and executive Chef Leo Matias told Yelp. "The key is balancing the heat with layers of flavor, so it's not just spicy. It's deliciously addictive."
Yelp contributor Luis Rendon wrote, "Some like it hot - and others like it tongue-burning, mouth-blazing, thermometer-bursting hot. To satisfy those sizzling food cravings, we've scouted out some of the spiciest restaurant dishes across the nation."
