The Backyard at the W Hotel
For a more upscale but still casual brunch experience, head over to The Backyard at the W Hotel in Westwood where you'll dine al fresco by the pool, enjoying some of Executive Chef (and 'Top Chef' alum) Dakota Weiss' creations made with farm-to-table ingredients.  For this entire year, you can enjoy a two course brunch on the weekends for $20.12 and add bottomless mimosas for an additional $20.12 (last year, the prices were $20.11).  The Backyard is a popular spot for out of town celebrities and is definitely one of L.A.'s hidden gems.
