An LA institution and local favourite. Mexican food doesn't get any better than this. And yes, that older Mexican woman is making fresh tortillas from scratch. No reservations, so be prepared to wait for 30 mins or so on weekends.

Great little, casual come-as-you-are spot for breakfast or lunch in the heart of Venice. The menu is extensive and the food is as delicious as it is varied. Park your bikes out front, eat on the outdoor patio and take a couple of fresh baguettes to go.

A must do on everyone's first visit LA. Take the bikes or just stroll along to see hundreds of shops and street performers. Things don't get rolling until about 11am and everything shuts down at sunset
