Any recommendations for nice LA resturaunts that USC students like that are open for Turkey Day? Prefer to be closer to downtown LA, as that is where we are staying.

Lawry's The Prime Rib. Great family restaurant in Beverly Hills on La Cienega. They'll be serving their standard menu along with traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

I would def recommend making a reservation.

This Berkeley guy likes it...

Also, the USC football team eats there quite a bit for the Rose Bowl's annual Beef Bowl.

While this is not in downtown L.A., Glendale is about fifteen minutes away and Clancy's Restaurant is offering a family-style Thanksgiving dinner for 6 for $99--with whole turkey carved at the table. THANKSGIVING DINNER AT CLANCY'S They'll even pack up the leftovers for your student to take home!

I dunno restaurants very well downtown but I'd advise loading up yelp.com and searching in los angeles for restaurants, then zoom the map into the areas you want to see listings for and set the filter to highest rated or most reviews. I saw a few places downtown with a lot of 4 star reviews that you might want to pull up the menu/website for.
