For Angelenos ready to enjoy the comforts of hospitality, restaurants across the Southland are creating brand new patios using available space or activating existing outdoor dining rooms to safely serve patrons through the pandemic. From woodsy patios in the mountains above Malibu to oceanside beer spots in Long Beach, here now are 17 lovely outdoor dining patios in Los Angeles.

Removed: Malibu Wines & Beer Garden, Idle Hour, Los Angeles Ale Works, El Ruso

Added: La Grande Orange, Spago, Little Coyote, Republique

A number of LA restaurants have resumed dine-in service. The level of service offered is indicated on each map point. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns: for updated information on coronavirus cases in your area, please visit the Los Angeles Public Health website. Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
