Lonely Planet review

With flashing video screens, oversized facades and garish colors, City Walk hovers like a reject from the Blade Runner -meets- Willy Wonka school of architecture. Opened in 1993 as a shopping adjunct to the theme park, this outdoor mall evolved into a local's hangout that can feel like a middle school mecca on weekends. Its 65 shops, restaurants and entertainment venues offer mid- and low-brow attractions, with low leading by a nose.

Beyond the knick-knack stores and chains, the new Dodgers Clubhouse stands out with its Dodger's-related clothing and accessories - including bats broken during games. The courtyard balcony at Karl Strauss Brewery is primo for people-watching while sipping a hefeweizen.
