Questions

When's the best time to catch a Dodgers game?
April through October is the regular season; March and September-October offer playoff intensity. Spring training games in March are also solid if you want lower ticket prices.
Is Runyon Canyon safe early morning?
Yes—it's well-trafficked by 6 AM and heavily patrolled. Go before 7 AM to beat crowds and heat.
Do we need reservations for these restaurants?
Bestia, Gwen, and Perch require advance bookings (often 30+ days out); Park's Finest takes walk-ins but expect a wait on weekends. The Edison and The Pikey are first-come, first-served.
