When you’ve shopped until you’ve dropped, get really great pizza or other takeout food and a cool video and just kick back. Or do parties the easy way at our family-oriented restaurants and bowling alley. And don’t forget our hotels if you're planning to stay in the Los Angeles area or need that extra bedroom for out of town guests! Got questions?
