1. Each listing has icons describing the restaurant. It makes searching quick and easy, especially if you know what you're looking for (e.g., noisy babies OK). Goes on to list relevant information like parking, popular dishes, unique dishes, and "family friendly because..."
   
   Some Useful Legend icons include: well behaved or older kids ok, outside or patio seating available, noisy babies ok, its early and we're hungry, expect to wait, live music or performance, activities to do (e.g., drawing), interesting decor, historical/cultural/educational in theme, Vegetarian/vegan friendly, exceptional kids' menu, drinks for mom and dad.
   
   The guide is broken down by areas, so you can look under Hollywood, East, North East, Valley, Beaches, Pasadena, etc. And those places or areas that have a little more to do have a bonus article (e.g., things to do at the Santa Monica airport or a great park to go to after a lunch in Westwood). Also, the book is NOT filled with monster chain restaurants, but with small, local places. NICE!
   
   Overall, I'm really happy with this book. I just know that there are some local places that are missing, so I know there are probably more places that just haven't been included.



2. I found three favorites from my childhood in the book, based on the town I grew up in. As the other reviewer stated, the book is broken up into categories and helps readers find a place based on food type and money.
   
   The only thing that could have made this book better, would be to include photos of "famous" dishes offered at some of the restaurants as I am one of those people who need photos to show me what something will look like before I even consider ordering.

1. Good update to a "must have" map for travel in the Los Angeles and Ventura Counties of California. The guide also includes points of interest and essential facilities (Post offices, Governmental Centers, Hospitals, etc.) in an indexed listing and on the map pages.
