Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti was commended recently when he announced that the L.A. Al Fresco outdoor dining program for restaurants would be extended through the end of the year. But, Beverly Hills is already on the fast track with that concept.
While many of the area’s top restaurants are not blessed with outdoor patios, some have expanded onto the street, in alleys and parking lots. In early June, the City was already discussing the option of utilizing the public parking meter spaces in front of the sidewalks to build parklets, offering restaurants more outdoor dining space for customers.
