It’s hard to beat a great recommendation. Our annual Readers’ Choice is a compilation of recommendations from your neighbors on how to enjoy your life best in the SoCal.
The pandemic was hard on small businesses. Many closed and those that didn’t are still recovering their finances. It’s a critical time for our favorite local spots and a perfect opportunity to recognize their contribution to our community.
Readers’ Choice isn’t complete without your input. As a community member you know best which businesses deserve recognition. Make sure they get the credit they deserve by nominating, voting, and enjoying!
Check out our winners from previous years. (Click the badges below.)
Everyone has their go-to local businesses. From April 18 – June 4, nominate the restaurants, salons, mechanics, or other fixtures you rely on most in your community.
On June 20 we’ll announce the best nominees in dozens of categories. From June 20 to July 25, vote for the ones you feel deserve recognition for their outstanding service.
Go visit the winners! Readers’ Choice 2024 will be published on September 26. It’s a fantastic way to learn what your neighborhood has to offer. Try out all the finalists and see what the buzz is about!
