Easter is coming up this weekend–and for many families it may be the first holiday they’ve safely been able to celebrate together in a long time. Even those who don’t celebrate may be feeling a sense of renewal and rebirth after such a difficult year. To mark the occasion, many L.A. restaurants are offering special Easter brunch menus for dine-in and to-go.
Bourbon Steak
Bourbon Steak is offering a three-course prix-fixe brunch for those who want to dine at the Glendale restaurant, either on the patio or indoors. Dishes include an array of savory and sweet dishes–including steak, of course. For those who prefer to dine at home, a special Easter roast package is available, with a choice of prime rib or lamb. michaelmina.net
Gasolina Cafe
Enjoy a Spanish-accented Easter brunch at Gasolina Cafe. A three-course menu includes gazpacho, an omelet (chorizo or spring vegetable), and a plate of “Spanish French toast” with berries. Sip on a mimosa-like drink made with cava and tangerine juice. gasolinacafe.com
Milo & Olive
Pick up everything you need to celebrate at Milo & Olive’s special Easter market. You’ll be able to shop pre-prepped Easter baskets, get special home goods from Heather Taylor Home, and stock up on seasonal treats including carrot cake and hot cross buns. miloandolive.com.
Vespertine & Destroyer
Vespertine is offering decadent brunch boxes to celebrate Easter, including luxurious takes on blueberry parfait and avocado toast, plus oven-roasted eggs with black truffle, raclette cheese, and caramelized onions. More casual offshoot Destroyer will offer Easter egg-esque croissant sandwiches in pastel colors, stuffed with sophisticated fruit fillings. vespertine.la and destroyer.la.

Lanea
Santa Monica cocktail and taco spot Lanea is celebrating Easter with all-you-can-eat breakfast and brunch tacos for those who join for on-site dining.
