Weekend brunch, no reservations

Saturday and Sunday, 11:00 to 2:30

Brunch at Nola runs Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 to 2:30, and it works the way the whole dining room works: first-come, first-served, no reservations. Show up, put your name in, and wait with a cocktail — the bar opens with the restaurant at 11. With eight dining rooms across two stories, an open-air courtyard and a parklet out on Ramona Street, tables turn over across a lot of ground. The only tables that can be booked ahead are the private spaces, reserved for contracted large parties.
