Thanks man, will definitely check them out!
 
Whenever i go down to LA i always look at places that have been on man vs food or diners, drive ins, and dives. The food is always bomb and it's cool to just check them out.

judging by your avi, I'm guessing your korean.

Like the other dude said, KTown is a great place to head to for nightlife/restaurants. Moodaepo is the best all you can eat KBBQ place in Ktown if thats your thing.
Boiling Crab is really good as well.
 
Surprised no one has mentioned In-N-out Burger :smokin

But yeah, xxnamebrandxx pretty much broke it down.

Venice Beach is also a spot you can check out, lots of culture there to experience. Hit up Hollywood/Highland, City Walk at Universal Studios, Beverly Center, Niketown Beverly Hills, catch a Laker game at Staples Center, Farmers Market at the Grove in L.A.

Just know that you will definitely need to get a rental car to drive around.

This.

I went to LA this past September and it was awesome. Stayed at the Farmer's Daughter on Fairfax. I believe it was right across the street from The Grove/Farmer's Market (dope). It's also like two blocks down the street from Supreme, FCLA, Hundreds, OF, and etc so there is some good shopping to do from Rosewood and Fairfax up to the Grove.

The City Walk at Universal Studios was good, but I don't recommend actually going into Universal Studios unless you get a good discount. Hella tourists and I was more interested in meeting locals.

For the nightlife I hit up Drai's Hollywood and the W Hotel. It was ok, some bad biddies in the place, but you gotta have that rack or some status to pull, or at least that's what it seemed like to me. Ran into Brian Pumper there, homie went home with like six white chicks lol.

Venice Beach is cool with a lot of diversity and things to do there. Melrose is a good shopping experience too. I low key wanted to see what the hood was about though but that's probably not your thing.

All in all I think LA is where I want to be after I finish this last year of college up. Super chill and hella bad chicks there.
 
Would give my 2 cents of input, but you going to Socal, title was misleading OP.

101 North 6-9 pm
10 West 2-7 pm

I just saved you countless hours.
 
Umami Burger if you're a burger guy. If you love music, Amoeba Records on Sunset, there's an Umami Burger across the street in the Urban Outfitters plaza, so knock out two birds with one stone.
