Zach Pollack’s Cosa Buona is an Echo Park staple on the corner of Sunset and Alvarado. Pick up some blistered pizzas, eggplant parm, and smoky mozzarella sticks to take to the game.

Every LA neighborhood has some version of a Patra Burgers on Sunset. For decades, these solid spots serve burgers, burritos, tacos, fries, and pastrami. And Patra’s is that unfussy Echo Park staple, where an impressive consistent burger, fries, and drink will cost around $10.

Nestled near the 101 and 110 Freeways, the Eastside Market Deli was founded in 1929. Picture Italian sandwiches doused with red sauce, pastrami, and chicken parm. They also make a distinctly LA dish: the DA Special, with with sausage, meatballs, pastrami and roast beef. Take the cannoli.

Union Station’s impressive Imperial Western Beer Company created a home game special before jumping on the Dodgers Stadium Express. Pick up some sausages and a soft baked pretzel, then head to the line for the shuttle because it’s right outside Imperial Western’s door.

Daniel Son and his family churn out reasonably priced, flavor-packed Japanese-style convenience store sandwiches at this humble Chinatown restaurant. Classics like the pork katsu or chicken katsu sandos are excellent, while the slightly sweet crispy shrimp and candied walnuts sando is a gamechanger for the genre.

Cambodian food has yet to make larger inroads in LA’s food culture, but places like Gamboge are helping to pave the way (outside of the prolific Little Cambodia in Long Beach). This casual Lincoln Heights restaurant has a slew of take-out worthy fare like num pang sandwiches that will taste even better when paired with a few home runs.

The Guisados team continues to operate one of the best pre-Dodger game spots in the area. The crew just took over a former Mexican seafood spot and are now serving containers of ceviche with tostadas, quesadillas, and crispy shrimp tacos that should travel pretty well into the stadium.

Roman-style pizza might not come first to mind as great ballpark food, but this version from Nancy Silverton is terrific to take into Dodger Stadium. Choose between a variety of topping combinations and lug in a box while they’re still warm. Even when cooled down the crusts hold up and the cheesy, mostly vegetable toppings will be delicious.
