Awards season is in full swing and L.A. restaurants are getting swept up in the winning rhythm of weekly events leading up to the February 9 grand finale at the Dolby Theatre. The Screen Actors Guild Awards take place this weekend on Sunday, January 19. Starting today through Sunday, WarnerMedia’s TNT and TBS are activating a series of menu takeovers, dubbed SAG Awards Night Out, at several L.A. hotspots.

Angelenos can enjoy specialty menus and new signature cocktails at Gracias Madre (West Hollywood), Umami Burger (Hollywood, The Grove), Katsuya (Brentwood, Hollywood, L.A. Live), and Cleo (Hollywood, 3rd Street).

Umami Burger, Katsuya and Cleo will each offer three-course prix fixe menus priced at $25, $55 and $55 respectively, in addition to themed signature cocktails. For anyone with a sweet tooth, the SAG Awards is also taking care of dessert at Umami Burger, offering complimentary UFOs (tempura-fried, chocolate-filled oatmeal cookie topped with dulce de leche, chocolate sauce, vanilla ice cream) throughout the takeover.
