This year, just in time for our annual fall Dining Guide, restaurants are (mostly) back open! And life is getting back to normal, somewhat. To celebrate, the Chronicle staff headed to a classic — Pink’s Hot Dogs — on La Brea Avenue.
Since we last visited the all-day-and-late-night landmark, an outdoor patio has been transformed into a sea of white tables with pink umbrellas, providing a fun and colorful setting to enjoy your chosen “dog” (or hamburger) with all the trimmings. The outdoor seating is in the back, where part of the parking lot once stood. (Plenty of parking is still available just north of the order window.)
While the Chronicle’s 2020 Dining Guide featured pickup and delivery service and some al fresco dining options, this year’s three-page guide, listed below, has many more “A’s” for al fresco outdoor dining.
The list is a sample of the dining options available in the neighborhood. As was the case last year, in addition to regular service and “A,” some listed restaurants also have “P” for pickup and / or “D” for delivery. If a favorite eatery was overlooked, please let us know at info@larchmontchronicle.com.
Happy dining!
