DineLA restaurant week has commenced, and with it comes a slew of dining deals around Los Angeles. Last week, Eater covered the compelling places to get a prix fixe or discounted dinner in the city, from reasonably priced taco meals to fine dining tasting menus. Lunch is another part of the dineLA equation, where fancy restaurants try to draw new clientele by serving daytime meals with big value.

DineLA lunch is also a solid way to try local favorites like the pizza at Brooklyn Avenue Pizza Co. in Boyle Heights, or the solid Mexican fare at Yxta in Downtown LA. Here now, where 15 places to get lunch for dineLA restaurant week.
