It’s only fast food restaurants that are national chains with more than 60 locations. Locations in Airports, convention centers and hospitals are exempt.
However the state minimum wage is $15/hr

There were more on the list
Restaurants connected to or operating in conjunction with the following locations are also not covered by the law:
An airport;
A hotel;
An event center that is over 20,000 square feet or has more than 1,000 seats (for example, a sports stadium concert hall, or racetrack);
A theme park;
A museum; or A gambling establishment (for example, a card room)
Full exemption list is under question 11 https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/Fast-Food-Minimum-Wage-FAQ.htm
