  1. Cactus, olive trees, cream umbrellas, and a fountain doing its thing: the patio at Lon's is the whole reason to come for weekend brunch. The Old West dining room inside is a backup plan, not the goal. Southwest staples like chilaquiles and huevos rancheros share the menu with oysters and salmon Benedicts, which is a range that sounds odd until you're sitting there with a blood orange mimosa and stop caring.
