The 20 Best Restaurants In Santa Monica - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Layla is a welcome addition to LA’s bagel boom (thanks for starting it, Gjusta and Courage). But this Ocean Park bagel shop isn’t just part of a trend, it’s a lovely counter-service spot with great coffee and outrageously good bagels piled with the freshest produce available. And while you can order crusty-on-the-outside, cushiony-on-the-inside loosies, you’d be missing out if you didn’t try their open-face bagel offerings. Toppings range from classics (cream cheese, tomatoes, smoked salmon) to less typical stuff (lemon zest, chili flakes, PB&J, avocado, hummus). The bagel with seasonal fruit plus cream cheese and honey gives us goosebumps just thinking about it." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, cathy park
