dineLA takes place from July 16 – 27 for its first ever summer run, and many of the participating restaurants can be easily reached by Metro.

For those who aren’t familiar with dineLA, it’s 12 days of foodie heaven. Restaurants put together special three-course menus at fixed prices ranging from $15 – $25 for lunches and $25 – $45 for dinners. (Prices do not include drinks, tax or gratuity.) The menus often include the restaurant’s most popular dishes or the chef’s latest creations, and it’s a great way to sample a variety of dishes at reasonable prices.
