Food Scene
Lovely American restaurant about 5 mins up Sunset (its walkable if you like, just a small bit without a sidewalk, but we do it frequently). Slightly pricey, good cocktails, nice ambiance (don't be fooled by the strip mall exterior).

Fantastic breakfast and lunch spot about an 8 minute drive up Sunset. Park at a meter and wait about 15 minutes for a table, but the food is great and reasonably priced. Low key atmosphere, but keep an eye out for celeb sightings. NOTE - they don't serve alcohol here.
