Los Angeles and the surrounding area offer the most eclectic dining experience you can ever imagine. There are a few good places of note:
Fred62, a great retro diner, is on Vermont Avenue just north of Sunset Boulevard.
You want a good old-fashioned meal that Frank Sinatra would envy, but rumors say that he ate here a few times. Musso And Frank's great food, great atmosphere located on Hollywood Boulevard a few blocks east from Mann's chinese Theater not Buffet.
Pink's Hot Dogs is on Fairfax about 2 miles off Sunset.
Tommy's, scattered around the city; popular place to get a chili cheeseburger and chili cheese fries. Many are open late or 24 h. Beware of imitators.
Bob's Big Boy, leave the relish off this tasty morsel and add on some 1K Island, you'll thank me later. Located in the sunny vale of Burbank a couple of blocks from Universal City Walk.
Mercialgio great Italian place right outside the gate of Universal City walk, one of the best Italian joints in town.
House of Blues, where else but on Sunset Strip, great awesomely bad food, great prices, rocking place.
The Roxy, up the street from the House of Blues, not too shabby either, used to be the hang out back in the day.
The Griddle Cafe, little place, get up early and bring your appetite, they have some of the best pancakes you will ever experience, the french press coffee is some of the best in town, filled with a lot of pretentious industry types but if you can get past that, you will love the food.
Roscoes Chicken And Waffles, if you are from out of town you gotta have some chicken and waffles, its located on Grove, right off Sunset near the 101.
Taco trucks can be found along streets at night and are open late and provide inexpensive authentic food.
