With so many different accounts on Instagram, let alone food accounts, it’s difficult to decide who to follow. A lot of them have huge followings and professionally-shot photos to give you those mouth-watering images on your feed. It’s a little more difficult, however, to find quality food accounts in your area that will give you some great restaurant ideas for your next dinner out. Don’t worry though, we’ve done the hard work for you and rounded up some of the best SoCal food Instagram accounts that you need to hit follow on ASAP. 

San Diego Foodies

San Diego Foodies has a smaller following than most popular food accounts, but that doesn’t mean their photos are any less stunning. The photos are shot by Christopher Stone, a food content creator and marketer. Christopher’s posts take you all around the San Diego food scene. He also posts about new dishes and openings, so you’ll stay up to date on local foodie news. 

Lisa Eats LA

If you’re looking for some serious #foodporn, you need to be following Lisa’s account. She posts gorgeous pictures of her meals all over Los Angeles that are definitely going to make your mouth water. Another great thing about this account is that it features a wide variety of eateries, showing us Michelin star meals as well as food truck tacos. 

Jimmy Chew

Four girls collaboratively run the account cleverly named after the luxury shoe brand. Although they welcome fan submissions, they post some of their own food escapades. Follow them for some classic LA dishes, scenic backdrops and adorable desserts.

Not only does he dine with his dogs, he takes them to some fabulous local eateries. What better way to learn about some of SoCal’s best while looking at some cute little faces?
