Belcampo Meat Co. (LA/ Downtown)

I'm visiting LA so I may not be used to the prices here, but there was not that much food for the price. We paid $33 for lunch but I still feel hungry. The burger itself was good but the bun got soggy pretty quickly, and there were too many onions for me. The soda was okay, but as the ice melted it got really watered down. The fries were excellent, definitely the highlight for me! But if I came back to the market I would probably choose another eatery. Also they cut the meat right there which was a little much for me while I was eating, but I suppose some people would think that was cool.

Great place to dine and of course get high quality meat! They're located in the Grand Central Market. They only have 5 bar seats though, so that's a challenge but people eat fast and move on. The burgers were great.

A good burger that is a bit pricey. Liked the fries quite a bit. Crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. The counter is small and the food comes up fairly fast. Worth the look.

They make the best veggie burger I've ever had, but if you're looking for meat (it does specialize in that after all), try the breakfast sandwich or cheeseburger.

Delicious! I went here on Thursday night for game night at Grand Central Marketing. Of course I had to stop by to get a grass fed burger, it was so good! My husband had the lamb burger which was also delicious. We ordered the beef tallow fries, they were so yummy! The burger was $12.50. So expect to spend a little money when you go, but it's worth it.

I ordered the chicken lettuce wrapped. I was sold on the tarragon aoli but all I could taste was onions and spicy mustard. The chicken breast was small and not very filling alone. Side order of sweet potato fries were good. Really enjoyed the ketchup. I’m not normally a ketchup on fries person especially on sweet potatoes but the slight kick with slight sweet was great. My mom got a double classic burger and had I read the reviews here prior to a random stop by I should have ordered the burger apparently. Side of slaw was more like onion slaw than coleslaw. Overall I would go back but felt $38 was pretty steep for what we ordered (no drinks)

I was happy to find out they had gluten free buns. The meat patty was good, but otherwise the burger was quite dry. It was suppose to have the house sauce, but if it had it, I could not taste it. Also, the sweet potato fries were not tasty, although there were plenty of them. The lemon-lime soda tasted like chlorine. Service was friendly though even though it was busy in the market.

The "Belcampo Burger" is amazing. I ordered it with sweet potato fries. Those were really good too. I like that the ingredients tasted like advertised, "All natural, organic" and such. I paid $24.09 for the food you guys. :O Ugh, but it was good. I would say it's worth it for when you want to splurge or if you just don't care about spending money on a burger because you got it like that.

I forget that Grand Central Market is insanely busy in the weekends. Parking structure next to the market is soooo full and crowded. If you have a full sized truck you'll need to navigate slowly --- and everyone needs to be patient! There is never enough available seats and tables during the weekends --- it doesn't help when there are people "holding" chairs and tables for friends that haven't even arrived yet. I really love how there are so many good food options here - I love taking people here. Everyone can get whatever they're craving.

So many food spots to try here. It's on Broadway in downtown LA. Area is not the best. They have a variety of food. I seen, tacos/mexican food (several), sold cooked meat by the lbs., Korean, Thai, Ramen, sushi, Peruvian, empanada's, pastrami sandwiches, juicery, aguas Fresca, coffee, donuts, beers and others. Lines can get long or take a while. I went to the shortest ones. Tried the beef empanadas for $5 each. It was good! Eggslut was made to order. Pastrami breakfast bagel was good. I wish I had a bigger stomach to try it all. Limited seating available but Definitely a stop when in the area for its variety.

It's been about 5 years since I've been here last, pre-2019 COVID-19. I've been wanting to come here for a while for some delicious carnita tacos and check out what's new, if anything. There is parking for $10 across the street. Otherwise, other parking lots are $22 for 2+ hours. That's how they get you parking is charged ever 15min. In any event, I don't think we ventured through every place. We definitely got carnita tacos, hubby wanted ramen, and got the most popular item but stated it was "just okay" ... we got empanadas, which were pretty good, then off to get pupusas and a puerco tamale. The tamale was small and tied, which we had to use a knife to cut to get to the tamale, and it was a lot more masa than puerco. The pupusas were okay. Every place was on its A-game about getting orders in and out, and each location had a line. Service was as quick as could be expected for the lunch time on a weekend. I think our choices (aside from tacos) could have been better made, as we were basing on comparing restaurants rather than trying something new - which was the intent. I'm not sure about the value - it's a bit pricey for the amount of food, and I know the cost of everything is skyrocketing. We easily spent over $100.00 for 3 tacos, 1 ramen, 2 empanadas, 1 tamale, and 2 pupusas. Downstairs near restrooms is a small boutique (quite pricey too) spent a out $50 for some sage and wood to burn for good vibes.

Grand Central Market DTLA is such an awesome spot for foodies, tourists and locals time and time again. There are so many different, ethnically diverse small businesses to choose from within the three story building. I personally am a big fan of Nonnas Empanadas and also Knead. Knead is an italian noodle spot that also has sandwiches and wings. They are always quick with my orders and remember my face. Nonnas empanadas is a little hidden and provides many different options from chicken, beef to veggie base. Empanadas are a type of savory pastry that originated in Spain and Portugal! It is pretty much always crowded here since it is a historical stop for many tourists, especially on weekends. Be prepared to claim a table and commit to it since many people are there with families and need lots of space to sit and eat. I am usually in a small group or alone. It is not polite to sit down at a business you did not buy from so please be courteous to other guests. Also try NOT to drive as parking is a hassle. Hope you have a wonderful visit!

First time here and definitely would come back to try other vendors here. I tried Ramen Hood, which is vegan ramen. It was my first time eating vegan ramen and its not bad. The broth is rich and i like the noodles they used. But i much prefer just regular ramen. The fried chicken at lucky bird was fire. The chicken was juicy and i love their honey habanero sauce. Their jalapeño biscuit are also a must try, very moist and full of flavor. The breading was a bit too hard though. They have a parking structure, but the space is small so dont drive a truck in here and expecting to fit. Parking is $5 for the first 90 minutes which is incredible for downtown LA.

Fun weekend at the grand central market with lots of delicious food vendors and of course the drinks Great short visits

Our family loves this place. Everyone satisfies their craving! They have almost every type of food here. Very busy place so if you find a table, reserve it right away. Service is pretty good in the places that I've ordered food from. Some stalls are more expensive than the others but ultimately the value is great for your $$.

If you're in the downtown LA area and want to try some special flavors, you should definitely go down to the Grand Central Market. Here, you will find a wide variety of options to eat. Guarantee to satisfy even the pickiest eater! From East to West, land or sea, this place offers dishes from every part of the world. As expected from such tourist locations, prices will be a bit high. However, you get to experience the food frenzy in a block long international food market!

Just wow throughout. We love to visit the local market of any city we visit and this was no exception. Just awesome through and through we loved the visit. Tons of great food options everything was delicious and loads of seating and things to see. What a great place to visit and a must do in LA!

I've lived in LA all my life and would always hear about this place but never found a reason to go to that side of LA but when I did have a reason to go I decided to stop by and see what it was all about. This place did not disappoint at all, not only did they have different kinds of food but the service at every place was great. Everyone is patient and kind to the customers. Price wise wasn't so bad being that there's inflation so I believe I got my moneys worth. Definitely recommend this place to people who are visiting or just want to have different variety of food all in one place.

The grand central market offers just about every cuisine you can think of. Conveniently located in downtown LA and not far from a metro stop. You will want to come hungry there are many great food options that you can try that aren't readily in other spots of the country. This is a great family activity as there is plenty for both kids and adults to do. We had some delicious empanadas that I absolutely recommend with all kinds of different flavors. A great spot to visit with plenty of cultural diversity.

I had so much fun at the Grand Central Market. I have to say Villa's Tacos were amazing, we also got some Ghost Sando sandwiches to go and they were really hearty and filling. The Donut Man had a long line which was not surprising because their donuts are pretty bomb! We probably bought too many, and I have to say they are much better to be eaten the day of, because the next day they are not as soft to eat!

The original food hall. Located in the Homer (Do'h!) Laughlin building, the first fireproofed, steel-reinforced structure, occupied since 1917 by the Grand Central Market, which means it's as old as the first jazz recording, the Mexican revolution, our occupation of the Virgin Islands, the Lions Club, Pulitzer prizes, the Thermos, the zipper, Sonar, the Converse All-Star, and the hamburger bun. With 340+ food halls in the country, the century-old GCM in their "common inspiration", according to "They can't all be Grand Central Market: Does L.A. have too many food halls?" (LA Times, 2019). Though the market sells spices, flowers, and produce, the 2 million visitors a year are drawn to the vendors selling food... like Ana Maria (Mexican), Bento Ya (Japanese), Berlin Currywurst (German), Broad Street Oyster Co, China Cafe, Donut Man, Eggslut, For the Win burgers, Ghost Sando, Golden Road brewery, Jose Chiquito (breakfast all day), Knead pasta, La Tostadaria, Lucky Bird (fried chicken), Maple Block (smoked meats), Moon Rabbit tea and sandwiches, Nonna Empanadas, Olio wood fired pizza, Oyster Gourmet, Ramen Hood, Roast to Go (Mexican), Sarita's Pupusaria, Shiku (Korean), Sticky Rice (Thai), Sushi Rush, Tacos Tumbros y Tomas, Villa Moreliana, Villa's Tacos, and Wexler's Deli. Imagine a indoor food truck event without the trucks. It will get crowded- you will bump shoulders and be forced to take tiny concubine steps, manuvering around human speed bumps, and you likely won't find a seat, but it's worth it.

Super fun environment Something for everyone Delicious food and sweet treats $5 parking for the first 90 min

Come hungry and bring friends to help you eat! I love coming by with a group so we can get something from all the stops and share! There's everything you can imagine food wise here, from coffee shops and ice cream to Mexican and Asian cuisine. Awesome open market to walk through and explore! There's some trinkets along the way and little shops too. Parking I suggest across the street in the garage. So many different places to try, most are decently priced! Service is always great, people are in a good mood and vibes are high here.

This place was referred to me by my Goddaughter. We went to the Dodger game the night before and went here in the morning. OMG , they have everything and anything your craving at the time we went to Taco's Tumbras a Tomas . Humongous BBurritos , and every kind under the sun . Our go to place from now on , when we're in L.A.

A date day at Grand Central Market... Yes, we did this and I'm so glad we did!! Meeting in the middle for a truly unforgettable time. ARRIVING: With options of entering or exiting from Broadway or Hill Street... pretty neat, right? You can hop off at the fast east Pershing Square Station hub (on the corner of 4th Street & Hill) or even at Civic Center/ Grand Park Station as both are the same distance from the must experience DTLA Public Market and Food Court, serving the greater city of Los Angeles since 1917. If driving like a lot of people tend to do you have your choice of structured or open parking both off 3rd & Hill. The lots range from $5 to $25 depending on time spent at GCM and in the area. The choices are endless and you'll definitely find something for yourself, and/or the company you're with. The great thing is you can try one thing, they can try something else and/or you can share! EATING: We ended up having a LA LA Land moment trying Sarita's Pupuseria, right in the corner area... It was pretty cute...The wait on a Sunday or weekend however was endless lol... So be prepared O.O... Definitely one of the most popular places in the entire Central Market, but absolutely worth it. The fried plantains alone are amazing and the pupusas (many vegetarian and some vegan options available). Valeria's [Latin Dry Goods], yes! #ShopSmall Golden Road Brewery, check! #CheersForCheers McConnell's Fine Ice Creams, w/ mango sorbet (for us dairy free folks as well as their plant-based Salted Caramel Swirl) + SO MANY signature creamy classic favs like bae's mint chip. Ramen Hood (100% all vegan spot) w/ faux eggs, savory unique broth and loaded with flavor in HUGE bowls or reusable to-go containers. Olio's Wood Fired Pizzeria - vegan cheese option available... I'll be back, for that!! Desserts, Fresh Produce, Pantry Supplies, Drinks, Coffee Cafes, Sandwiches, Salads, Soups, Sushi, Pizza, Ramen, Vegan Chicken Tenders, Classic Tenders, sky's beyond high and above the limit with all the types of things to feed your soul, not to mention stomach with.... Staying hydrated is pretty easy too. EXPERIENCING: Seating is available, but very first come first serve. We managed to grab spots a few times. At one point when we made our way over to Golden Road we thought someone might be leaving, but they actually just got up to get an order while the other held the table. Mi corazon (aka him) spotted a table off the street just outside the Hill side INT/EXT - he swooped in like a someone hoping to get the last seat at a casino and win big lol [definitely winning big with each other... too cheesy?]. We got to look onto the bustling yet scenic street and watch Angel's Flight, just across from us. Photo opportunities throughout and on the outskirts of Grand Central Market, including their Jarrito's wall and reflective walk-in... Definitely had a #InstaBoyfriends moment... Don't forget to like and follow :D hahaha - you can also pop into the Photomatica Photobooth for a memory moment as well [totally forgot about doing this]. NOTE: I will say with all the foot traffic and normal wear... They could use some TLC in parts, some thick dust on some of the fans (not many or on, so very noticeable), heavy footprints (a nice deep mop), touch ups (here/there)... could really elevated them more as 2024 is the year a lot of us are getting back out more and more. TIPS: Open everyday from 8AM to 9PM with some vendors closing earlier or opening later than others depending on the day... Unless you're lucky enough to live in those apartments above the market... Wow!! Don't forget to explore some shopping at The Bazaar underneath on the lower level. Overall it's a great place to enjoy at any time! Lunch fix? Night craving? Date day? Self date day? Family fun? Anytime you're nearby? Yes, all the above!!

Best place to go around indoors in DTLA is this indoor market that has crap tons of food and crafts. Grand Central Market is a pretty big place that actually has a few floors. It has the main area with all the vendors. Also there's some kind of flea market looking place in the basement. The upstairs is where it's busy with people getting food and whatever. A busy place it seems to be. It's just about the most popular place to go to in this area to be honest. There's lots to choose from for any tastes. A popular place is Eggslut. This is a breakfast place right inside the main entrance that has pretty long ass lines. Ramen Hood is entirely plant based and has noodles of course. There's sausages at Berlin Currywurst including ones made from tofu. Also a location of Golden Road Brewery to get some good beers and bar food like pretzels. Teddy's Tiny Bites has pancakes and whatever. Also lots of places to get bulk foods. There's candy, spices, and lots more. Certainly it can get very busy. It's also known for having high prices on some stuff. There's some that are good values.

This is a cool stop. I've reviewed each of the places I ate at separately but thought I'd leave a review for the establishment as a whole. If you like to try a whole bunch of different types of food, this is the place for you! Know that not every stand in this place is open at once. Sometimes you'll go for a specific food and then find out that they're closed that day. On the weekends, this place can get super crowded, so I would recommend going on a weekday if you can. Just because there's a lot of food doesn't mean it is cheap. I would say depending on where you go you're going to spend between $16 and $25 for a meal and $6-$10 for a pastry or dessert. The parking around there is pricey. The lot attached to the market is charges in increments of 15 minutes. There are some adjacent lots that have flat rates between $10 and $20. All in all, this is a good experience but I might recommend going to the LA farmer's market or even just treating yourself at some local restaurants around LA.

I had the pad see ew with beef from Sticky Rice and the passion fruit tea from Moon Rabbit. We went on a Saturday and it was really crowded but the food was really good and there's a few things to do around there. The service was good and we were able to find a place to sit and enjoy our food.

Grand Central Market was recommended to us as a place to find breakfast and Ono Grindz. When I first walked in, I said man I bet this spot is jumping at night. There's at least 25-30 food vendors and more. Food vendors vary from Latin, American, Thai, Mexican, Korean, Italian, Assorted Bakeries & Sweets, Japanese, Seafood, Chinese, & Asian cultures. Various coffee shops, fresh juices, Latin Dry goods, Torres Produce of fruits & vegetables, LA Huerta Candy and Mexican Nuts & Pizzerias. Did I mention the craft brewery? There's something here for every taste bud. The spots where we are and ordered food from were all reasonably priced. Well Done I was told that they have game nights, movies and other events. Down on the lower level, they have vendors who sell jewelry and clothing. I purchased a cute pair of gold hoops from JBOSS Jewelry.

4+ Such a great place that serves as a wonderful selection of places to eat for hungry tourists, locals, people that work in the area, etc. A huge positive of this place is that it also serves as an incubator for up and coming vendors or as a great spot to place a location for established LA stalwarts. There's a good variety so you can do some shopping for some market items or find great places to grab a bite. Essentially a permanent structure for farmers market. The variety is such that you can find different price points in terms of food for some slightly higher end spots and some places that provide great value. The positive: I think about this place fondly as this was one of the very first spots I frequented when I first moved to LA. Mainly because the office I was working in was essentially across the street (up the hill /Angel's Knoll or where the bench made famous by 500 Days of Summer was located). My go to was the pupusa spot, but I would go to different stalls from time to time. Been here recently for Eggslut, Donut Man, Margarita Manzke's Sari Sari Store, etc. The negative: so it really did feel like an awesome farmers market when I first came. Had a similar feel to the hawker centers/ eateries I experienced in Singapore. Despite going often over the span of two decades, I literally just found out the pupusa spot had an actual name. So with the direction it has been going, it feels more like a high end food court, which is why I know spots like Eggslut, Donut Man, etc. Not a huge negative, but it just lost a bit of the vibe that made me love this place so much. Still a great place though. Negative (cont.) Another thing I noticed is that there seems to be relatively high turnover for some of the spots. I worked in retail real estate and couldn't say for certain how the business model works here. Is it higher rates? Business concepts that don't work here? Personal reasons the public doesn't know about? Maybe it's just coincidental, but I noticed that there used to be a high end whiskey purveyor that didn't last long. Margarita Manzke's Filipino spot closed abruptly recently as well. The ugly: during peak times, driving here/ finding parking could be a nightmare. I think there's a lot to this place, but to this day, I've never used it or know much about it. Like I mentioned above, a lot of visits here for me was a result of me being at work a block away. Overall, just a place I have a special place in my heart for and a place I always enjoy the idea of going.

GRAND CENTRAL MARKET IS A NICE SPOT TO GRAB A BITE WITH MANY OPTIONS! McConnell's Fine Ice Creams was founded by husband and wife, Gordon "Mac" and Ernesteen McConnell, in Santa Barbara, California in 1949. HONESTLY some very interesting flavors ' and I tried alot of different ice creams in my life It tasted a little tarty and balanced with creamy sweetness. ONE OF MY FAVE MINT CHIPS TOO! 9/10 ---- Next stop I had RAMEN RAMEN HOOD! I actually had no idea ramen hood had only 100% vegan ramen but it was delicious ! I got the Pork katsu garlic ramen which had no real meat in it, very rich broth. I think I still like REAL MEAT better lol but I still enjoyed it a lot. 7/10 --- LA HUERTA THE CANDY SHOP WAS SO GOOD ! Fresh juicy and yummy spicy mango gummies :) 10/10 Follow me for more : LIVING WITH LUCI

This market Is filled with so many great places to eat and pick up great food, treats and wants. The vibe is upbeat, music choice fantastic and the bustling of employees, and patrons is strangely comforting. Love this concept!

Grand Central Market offers a diverse array of options to suit every taste. With its wide selection of food all in one place, reasonable prices, cleanliness, lively atmosphere with music, and bustling crowds, it's a recommended must-visit spot, as suggested by the front desk, and it certainly lives up to expectations.

Why have I never been here? I just found out about this place recently! I travel to Southern California all the time just for the good eats. So glad I finally came to visit. This market place has such a wide variety of foods that there's literally something for everyone and don't worry, not everything is super expensive either. Coming here made me feel super overwhelmed because the main reason why I came to visit was because of Eggslut and then I saw everything else and wanted other things too. Make sure you come with your family or friends because everyone is going to want to try everything. This place is definitely touristy and a lot of people traveling come visit this place for all the good eats. Parking is okay and if you look hard enough and know the spots, parking can be free. I'm not telling you guys anything because if I tell you... then you're gonna take my spot haha.

Our family took an outing to Grand Central Market to have lunch on the Labor Day Holiday. My son got a wonderful three cheese pizza, I had a delightful smoked sturgeon bagel from Wexler's Deli, and my husband had a dozen oysters for his lunch. My son was entranced by all of the neon signage and throngs of patrons buying so many different kinds of foods.

I'm a bit torn on Grand Central Market. I'm not sure if I went in with high expectations, but I left feeling somewhat...underwhelmed. Sure. There are a ton of options to eat. And I am sure a lot of them are absolutely delicious. The ones I went with just felt like they were run of the mill (pupusa & smash burger stalls). Don't get me wrong. They were tasty, but they also felt like they were meals I could get on a dozen street corners around the city. I will say everyone I talked to raved about the currywurst kiosk. However, it was either closed for the day or gone for good when I was there because it looked abandoned. That was a huge letdown. With all that said, the market still has some nice charm to it. It's fun to walk around in. See the hustle & bustle of the crowd as they also roam around trying to decide on what eat. It's a total melting pot of foods that make up Los Angeles as well as all the vibrant cultures from its citizens. There's something subtly beautiful about it. So would I recommend it? I think if you're already in DTLA and hungry, sure. But I don't think I would drive out there just to eat.

Our family's go-to place to dine when in downtown LA. You'll find a range of options to choose from - so much so that at times it's gets overwhelming. There's never a shortage of patrons, so if you're coming at lunch, dinner, or anytime on the weekend, expect a crowd!

Once I stepped in, I smelled smoke and pepper and covered with (good)noise and energy. I'm sure you will be excited to find something new here. Some stalls have the counters and others not. I bought tacos at Ana Maria and moved to the table section near the stairs. They have market merchandise corner too. The design was pretty and kitsch. Under the stairs, there are restroom and bazaar venue which opens every Friday to Sunday. At S.Hill Street side entrance, you will find big wall neon lights.

This place is always fun to just get out and grub. So many options to choose from such as Italian, Mexican, Asian, German and Sea Food. Today I went with a buffalo chicken sandwich and garlic fries at KNEAD NOODS - For the Love of Pasta. The sandwich was good but nothing special. 5/10 the fries though. Fire! 8/10. Was a little pricey but I may come back to this spot. Time to find dessert!

If you find your self within the area, a visit to Grand Central Market is an absolute have to. This bustling market gives an excellent array of culinary delights, catering to a whole lot of tastes and alternatives. From true tacos bursting with taste to steaming bowls of wealthy, savory ramen, the options are apparently endless. Pair your meal with a refreshing, cold beer from one of the market's carriers, and you've the correct dining experience. Grand Central Market isn't always pretty much food; it's about the colourful surroundings and the community spirit that flourishes within its walls. Each seller brings some thing unique to the table, creating a diverse tapestry of culinary offerings that mirror the wealthy cultural mosaic of the location. As a person who has skilled the culinary scene in Hawaii, I cannot help however desire for an area like Grand Central Market again domestic. The range, the fine, and the communal vibe make it a standout vacation spot for both locals and visitors alike. So, whether you're a foodie at the hunt for your subsequent wonderful meal or in reality looking to soak within the active environment, Grand Central Market is a vacation spot that have to now not be ignored.

There's a ton of variety but a lot of the food is subpar. Some spots give you big portions like La Tostaderia ceviche spot, but no flavor. We ordered a fish ceviche and a ceviche mixto." Very disappointed! The pupusas at Saritas was probably the best of all we tried. Lucky Bird was also disappointing. Their potato wedges looked delicious but they weren't. They're huge so it takes way look for them to cook in the fryer. The outside has decent flavor but we you bite into the middle there is absolutely no flavor. Maybe cutting them in smaller pieces would do the trick. Value-wise, you get big portions but the food is also pricey. If the taste was there it wouldn't matter but because it isn't, I do think it's expensive for what you get. This is the second time I go to the market. I don't think I'll come a third time.

Grand Central Market is a good place to visit when I'm in the L.A. Area. They have a variety of different food and drink stalls with a variety of price points. Last time I was there I tried one of the gourmet sausage places which took out order and turned it around quickly. For those who live in the area that's also meats that can be ordered to bring home and cook. There's plenty of seating available both indoor and in our outdoor patio. The area is dog friendly which is a priority for me since my wife and I bring our dogs lots of places. It's a good representation of the food diversity in Southern Cali. Last time I went my friend was driving and this was the first time parking in the parking garage on the block. I don't remember the price but don't think it was too outrageous (for Downtown L.A. pricing)

I found out about this area due to visiting Eggslut. We looked around & caught all of the other food spots you can order from. Due to that, I saw The Donut Man to the side corner of Eggslut. After having Eggslut, I convinced to make room for The Donut Man. Both were satisfying & we made laps to see what else this spot had to offer. They offer more than a lot: pasta, bratwurst, tacos, burgers, sandwiches, etc. Whenever you struggle to figure out what you have a taste for, come to Grand Central Market to help fix that.

This is by far the spot to be at in LA. Good service. Parking fees are not to bad. Food selection is vast. Great value for your scrilla

So many options! Definitely check this place out, although it may be hard to find seating (especially for larger parties). Tacos are extremely flavorful and don't skimp out on meat or toppings!

Recently visited Grand Central Market on Monday. Very fun food hall with a lot of different food vendors. There's a something for everyone. We ended up picking up breakfast sandwiches from Eggslut and some tacos from Villa Moreliana. Overall really fun time here. Lots of open seating and great food options. We also love that its pet friendly. Definitely a gem in DTLA. Parking structure is attached to the building. It's a bit tight and they charge $5 for the first 90 minutes.

My first experience here was very fulfilling lol! Overall, everything that I had opportunity to try was pretty good. I will say, however, the German fries that I had seem to have been a little bit overcooked not that I'm used to having lived abroad over in Germany. But created my little dipping sauce For the outcome to be a little bit more. The oysters were delicious as they were garlic and onion grilled. The atmosphere here is very loud and very crowded all in one. Was also very hot and humid having all of those restaurants under one roof and then adding, the flow of foot on top of that. But if you're able to put all that aside and still be able to enjoy your food or drinks of choice, I think you will still have a good time. This location is definitely a get in where you fit in spot. There is garage parking fills up extremely fast. We ended up parking on the night level and taking the elevator down to the main entrance. Lots of signs and colors everywhere so there's definitely something to always catch your attention when you're there based off of the food selection, whether you want something or or spicy or savory, something there go hungry! I was able to grab a little souvenir bag for around $15 as well.

Grand Central Market as a whole is an icon in Downtown LA, considering its hub for all things delicious as any food haul would be in this day and age. I do love coming here and have seen its growth in the last decade, but a few things still plague it with issues: - It gets super busy during the evenings and all day on the weekends. Sometimes it's impossible to find a seat so you have to sit at the counter of whichever establishment you choose. - Pricing for food inside are pretty steep all things considered. I know inflation is a thing but some of these prices seem like straight up gauging to me. - Still not a whole lot of vegan or plant-based options aside from Ramen Hood. Definitely worth a visit if you know where you want to eat at, but be prepared for some long lines and competition for seating.

I visited here on a recent visit to LA. I love the idea of being able to go to a central location to get several items from local businesses. I was able to purchase a dress and get a few delicious quick bites. I have to say I fell in love with the donuts. So decadent and fresh. The combination of fresh fruit with fried dough is such a contradiction but I enjoyed every bit. I wish I made time to try the drinks that were available. There were a few juice stands. Service was pretty quick at the locations we visited. I'll definitely visit again on my next trip.

This place is bomb! I can't have a lot of the food here with my allergies but I can take all my friends visiting from Chicago and Canada here! Everyone loves it! It's clean, there's plenty of parking if you get there early it usually like $10-$13 for parking. They have tons of security guards monitoring the floors to make you feel safe while you're downtown. There's a guard posted up next to the bathroom so you don't feel vulnerable. they have custodians constantly cleaning and sanitizing. The selection of food is unlimited! You just gotta come you won't be disappointed!

A great go to during lunchtime, there are many selections for everyone. It does get packed though so it gets pretty hot inside and there's not much seating. The service is relatively good, but during the lunch rush the service will get a little slow. Depending on where you get your food, the value is pretty iffy. I would say sticky rice usually is the best bang for your buck!

If you're traveling in LA you need to add this spot on your list!! This is my 3rd time coming & every single time has great vibes. I always try something new from pasta to ramen, you name it! This spot is foodie central and has something for everyone. They have great photo ops perfect for content! The place gets super busy, lots of people but usually the food has come out quick. You can park in the lot & it's $4 before 90minutes which was a good amount time for us!

Nice location with many great food options from sandwiches, desserts, and drinks. Pretty busy throughout the day. Tried Cheeseburger Single which was really good from EggSlut. Great service, clean, also had security as well. Reasonable price food. Parking garage is $5 for the first 90 minutes.

There's something for everyone here. You can find foods from all over the world and the people backing these shops care which is a plus. This is a great representation of the LA daily hustle. I've had tacos here, burritos, ice cream and there's places on my list to try. Food prices have been reasonable from my experience so far. If you're there on a weekend day during peak lunch hours it can be a little difficult finding seats and just getting around in general. Grand Central is worth the visit if you're in DTLA and haven't been.

Visited Grand Central Market for the first time as it was on the way to a favorite sushi place downtown. Their website, provides clear information such as map location, parking, hours, etc. Very helpful for first time visitors like me. Parking is located next to the market and is reasonably priced for the first 90 minutes. I thought we might need more than 90 minutes to explore but that was sufficient time. The parking rates after 90 minutes goes up so was kind of watching the time to make sure didn't go over the 90 minutes. There is security at both street entrances and at the lower level bathroom area, which is smart of management. Restaurants varied which made the place interesting, China Cafe was always busy, Villa Michoacana offered many different parts of the pig to order and man behind the counter gave us free samples of pork to try. Place seemed airy with lots of tables to sit at after picking up your meal. This is a bright spot for DTLA as when we walked around the block from entrance to entrance, the boarded up places and no sidewalk pedestrians gave the rest of DTLA a depressed gloomy feeling. Hope that this place can attract more businesses on the surrounding blocks to enliven DTLA, although if the parking rates at the open lots don't drop, I don't think more people will want to visit DTLA in general.

If you are in LA area, please stop at this popular spot. Make sure you walk around before you select the cuisine. They have limited vegan/vegetarian so please make sure to ask the vendor. They have small eating areas to enjoy your meal. The parking structure is right next to the marketplace. I paid $4 for 90 minutes. Bring your friends and families! There is also Angel Flight right across the street for your entertainment. It was great visiting this place.

There's a ton of food options in here and some shopping too. Depending on where you decide to eat, a meal can start from as little as $10. There's even fruit, beer, drinks, candy, desserts and snacks. Service is decent as it gets busy, but can't knock it.
