this Years round-up: THE BEST OF 2016

"It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times" .... 

But it's the only time we've got so let's celebrate the BEST of 2016.  The L.A.gant way.  If you need a recap from last year's round up click here!   Here's how 2016 lit the year:(click the red titles for details on the location)

Best Bar

E.P. & L.P.

Combination vibes & views; L.P serves great drunks (Freudian slip?) with a rockin' DJ.  You'll see a line down LaCienega (off Melrose) that makes you think it's a club with a cover charge.  It's that good!

Best Restaurant (casual)

BROOKLYN DELI

This Leimert Park jewel will leave you wanting more.  Fresh ingredients and tasty flavor combination, not to mention the lunch sandwich special of the day for $5

Best Restaurant

PERCH

On a Friday night (with the right weather) this rooftop restaurant is euphoric.  The food is fantastic, the live band is killer; perfect for a date night and/or girls night!

Best Urban Food delivery concierge 

AFNG

A L L F L A V O R N O G R E A S E

see previous post...there's nothing more to say!!!!!!! 

Best Brunch 

COMMISSARY 

My mind was blown in the green house atrium, the buffet + a la carte that is also bottomless along with the mimosas. Through in the poppin' DJ and it's lit!

Best Happy Hour

TOCA MADERA

Weekends included, makes this place exception, the staff is incredible, mexican food is done in a unique way (with vegan options) and I love love love the photobooth!!!  Make this a stop after brunch or before dinner!!
