If you've ever wanted to experience revolving sushi and robots, this is your spot. The sushi is great, the wait can be lengthy, but you can pass the time in Little Tokyo's outdoor mall that features sneaker shops, mochi spots, and outdoor karaoke.

If you can avoid the Walk of Fame, please do. It can be very crowded and touristy. If you'd like to go anyway, Mann's Theater has a selection of "stars" embedded in its courtyard, and the theater is great. The Hollywood Roosevelt hotel across the street is a great spot for a burger or a drink by the pool.

If you can see a concert at the Hollywood Bowl, go! It's historic and the acoustics are great. Just bring a jacket - nights can get pretty cold. They have a great Lyft drop off system, too.

Another great concert spot is The Greek. A pro tip is to eat in Los Feliz Village before-hand (you can find street parking off of Vermont) and walk the 15 minutes up to the theater. Or you can Uber, too.
