"Don’t write off brunch at this all-day restaurant inside North Hollywood’s Garland Hotel as sleepy. The fireplace-adorned courtyard fills with studio workers sipping wine during their lunch hours and retirees getting day drunk because they can. But the place comes into its own during weekend brunch. Valley locals and excited hotel guests eat dishes like short rib hash and egg-topped breakfast burgers. $28 mimosa pitchers garnish every table. If you’re looking to get a little day drunk, but not go completely off the rails, The Front Yard works well as a middle ground." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
"Always ask for a patio seat in the Front Yard. This North Hollywood spot is beautifully lit with candles and a fireplace, especially during the evenings. Located inside the Garland hotel, the Front Yard’s happy hour runs from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and 10 to 10:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and until 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Try the pepperoni flatbread, $6 beer, and a margarita for $9." - Rebecca Roland
"Head to the Front Yard at the Garland Hotel on December 25 for an $85 buffet (or $35 for children 12 and under) from noon until 8 p.m. Start with potato leek soup and goat cheese arugula salad before filling up a plate with smoked chile-rubbed prime rib, carnitas tacos, and roasted garlic potatoes. Book a table via OpenTable." - Rebecca Roland
"The Front Yard is the all-day restaurant inside The Garland in Studio City, but don’t write it off as a sleepy hotel lobby cafe. The enormous courtyard patio is a Valley lunchtime gem, filled with a healthy mix of studio workers playing hooky and retirees getting day drunk because they can. And on top of all that, the food is solid. Order the TFY burger with at thick short rib patty and a rosemary old fashioned. " - brant cox
