This is an all-day Mediterranean restaurant where you can eat an amazing broccoli toast at lunch or a whole rabbit for two at night. We like it best for a laid-back but still excellent dinner.

Why is there always a line at this coffee shop? No matter what day it is, no matter what time it is, you’ll always find a sizable crowd gathered outside of Maru. This Los Feliz café is inspired by owner Jacob Park’s childhood growing up in a mountain temple in Korea, emulating the same tranquility through tasteful natural light and lots of wood. Come early enough, and you’ll be able to snag a pastry, like chocolate-filled croissants or matcha cake donuts. But even if you don’t, there are wonderful drip coffees, teas, and vanilla bean lattes to order.

here’s a big sign greeting you as you enter this restaurant that says “there’s no place like Home.” We get the sentiment, but it’s also not entirely true: Home looks like pretty much every other nice neighborhood restaurant in LA. But it's great for doing work at, with plenty of tables, little nooks outside, and most importantly, outlets. The space is filled with lots of foliage and twinkly lights, the food is Italian-ish and affordable, and it’s always full of locals. Also, they do a good brunch.

Yuca’s is a classic. It’s been around since the 70s, and just about everyone agrees this tiny Mexican place is great—but good luck getting any consensus on what you should be ordering. Our favorite taco is the carne asada, there's also a great cochinita pibil, machaca, and carnitas. Although, they also do serve a pretty good burger too, a simple, diner-style version that comes wrapped in yellow paper and resembles something you'd eat at a bowling alley. There’s no bad order at this 10-seat little shack on the side of the road.

Ah, Alcove Cafe & Bakery. If you could distill Los Feliz's hipster energy into a single place, it'd be Alcove. The all-day cafe has a charming, vaguely retro decor—menus are written on chalkboards, the patio outside can only be described as "whimsical," etc.—and mediocre food. Between the overpriced sandwiches, turkey chili bowls, and extremely sugary smoothies, nothing here is going to blow you away. But if you're looking for a very twee place to bring out-of-towners or to spend an afternoon at, there's almost nowhere better to go than Alcove.
