LOS ANGELES - LA Live News Tonight on FOX 11 introduced a new feature to put a spotlight on locally-owned restaurants.

What we know:

The first guest was an impressive one – Michelin and James Beard-recognized Chef Ricardo Zarate.

Over the years, Zarate has impressed with his splashy restaurants around Los Angeles, including Rosaline, Paiche, and Picca. Now, he has independently opened a restaurant and this month, Chef Zarate celebrated the one year anniversary at the Hummingbird Ceviche House in Echo Park .

Some might call this a hidden gem. It's in a modest-looking building you might have passed while driving north on Alvarado Street to get onto Route 2.

Next time you do, stop for the incredible food at the Hummingbird Ceviche House, where Zarate serves Nikkei-style seafood.
