"Gjelina’s painful wait times have gone down over the years, but the amount of uncomfortably attractive people at this Abbot Kinney restaurant surely hasn’t. Another constant: Gjelina’s brunch is still worth going out of your way for, especially when enjoyed on its back patio. Their blistered Neapolitan pizzas, lemon ricotta pancakes dripping with blueberry compote, and soft scrambles are among our all-time daytime favorites.
