If you drive to Crystal Springs you can park and hike up to The Observatory, park closes at sundown on that side so no parking after that. There’s an adorable food stand called The Trails Cafe you can have Pie!

I don’t really like this spot, but everyone seems to have it on their must see list. It’s a little crime riddled, so be alert; it’s a pretty short drive from here. Danny Trejo has a fantastic restaurant near there: Trejo’o Tacos.
