there are two places i know of to enter the parking garage, on hollywood at orange or on highland just before hollywood if you are coming from the 101, there are very big clearly marked signs.

If you like hot dogs and don't mind a bit of a walk, check out Skooby's (Hollywood and Cherokee, I think). I'm something of a hot dog nut and Skooby's is my favorite place in LA. Their Guinness chili and double fried fries with aioli dipping sauce are to die for (and they cook a fine dog, as well).

I found this parking map:

Are these lots all usually open?

I was thinking about parking at the Hawthorn Lot or TV Guide lot because they are closer to Mel's / In and Out. We'll prob eat at one of those 2 places.

In the middle of June? You bet all those lots will be open! You may not even be able to get into your preferred lots. Traffic is usually bad around there anyhow but most likely there will be some event at the Hollywood Bowl and the lots will fill up quickly.

I decided to go with the Pig N Whistle. I bought a $25 gift card for $5 to it by following this link:

Restaurant.com - Eat. Drink. Save Money.

and then finding the pig n whistle on the site there.
Hopefully the food will be good
Can anyone make some recommendations what to get for dinner?

Were trying to figure out a place to go eat tomorrow before we see "Phantom". I think we've decided on "Pig n' Whistle" and are going to use the Restaurant.com discount thing. That's awesome.

Hope you have a great time...

I live there so let me answer this:

For pre-packed food: Famima
For fast-food: In-N-Out
For sit-down burgers... for a price: 25 Degrees
Best Ice Cream: Mashti Malones
...but if you have a car: Milk
And if you're craving Italian and old-style Hollywood: Micelis

And Loteria just opened a restaurant on the Hollywood strip which is absolutely worth checking out -- excellent Mexican.

But if you just want bare-bones dining, there's plenty of options for tourists in Hollywood & Highland Mall.
