Birthday Brunch Recs?

[Bekah]

I was wondering if you all might have some good ideas for where my family can go for a birthday, Sunday brunch?

We will be a group of 9 (including adult children, parents and grandparents) and we are looking for something nice (but not super super expensive). It can either be a buffet or not - no preference either way.

Mostly we are looking for somewhere with yummy food and a nice atmosphere where we can all relax and enjoy a nice meal. Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Campanile is a great choice for a family birthday brunch. Jar is another good choice.

Also consider Joe's in Venice.

What about going for dim sum in China Town? That is fun with a large group and kids...

Campanile on La Brea in the mid Wilshire area has a really good brunch, (not buffet). I don't care for their dinner offerings but brunch is quite nice and the setting is attractive too.

Here is a link to their website: http://www.campanilerestaurant.com/
