Hollywood
has lots of fast food available. There are nice restaurants for late evening dining
but I never go to them. The area is not necessarilly great for late evening walks.
There are panhandlers and bothersome people at night. Daytime is usually heavy with tourists.
 Tommy's Burgers, Hollywood Blvd. at Bronson, where the Hollywood Freeway exits at Hollywood Blvd. Tommy's Burgers is not a franchise. All the restaurants are owned by the same family. The burgers are a favorite with the locals in Southern California. I personally do not like them all that much but many people rave about Tommy's being the best. Chili burgers are offered. The price on the menu includes the sales tax. |
Pretzel Stand, This one was near The Chinese Theatre This pretzel stand might be a place for you to get a snack and rest your feet while you probe the Hollywood sights. There are various sidewalk snack outlets and very small restaurants in the area. |
Hamburger Hamlet on Hollywood Blvd. across the street from The Chinese Theatre OK, I know this picture is bigger than the others. I am not trying to give Hamburger Hamlet a special plug. I just want you to look and tell me, isn't that Elvis getting into his yellow Plymouth or Ford? |
Shakey's Pizza on Santa Monica Blvd. just East of LaBrea I eat here often. I like the buffet between 11AM and 2PM. The price with a beverage will be about $10 per person. Pizza, salads, chicken, spaghetti and many choices. Lots of parking in back. |
