7 Restaurants to Try During dineLA

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

dineLA's Fall 2010 Restaurant Week--which is really the better part of two weeks--is underway, and this year there are 300 restaurants participating, which makes dineLA not only the largest restaurant week in the nation, but also an event that presents a staggering array of options to diners.

From $16 lunches at cozy neighborhood eateries to $44 dinners at some of Los Angeles' most prestigious restaurants, these three-course prix fixe meals let customers get to know the food at a place or two (or more) they've never tried, or re-visit a favorite for a friendly price. Oh, but where to go, where to go?

We've examined all 300 options...and here are our picks for the 5 standout must-tries on the list. DineLA's Fall 2010 Restaurant Week runs now through October 8 and again from October 10-15. Reservations suggested.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.
