Restaurants
Stall A12
Chipotle
Chipotle Mexican Grill, the gourmet restaurant where you eat wih your hands, dishes up gourmet burritos, tacos, and bols (yes bol - it's a burrito without the tortilla!). Choose from a variety of fresh, whole ingredients, such as Niman Ranch free-range pork and guacamole mashed from ripe California avocados, to build the burrito of your dreams. All for around six bucks. (Critic Favorite)
Specialty Foods
Stall 450
Bob's Coffee & Doughnuts
An L.A. institution: fresh, made-right-here doughnuts every day and a select variety of premium coffees and teas. Kids love the specialty doughnuts (dinosaurs and kitties) and everybody raves about Bob’s cinnamon roll. (Critic Favorite)
Restaurants
Stall 618
Pampas Grill
No cafeteria anywhere can compete with this churrascaría – move down the line to select from an amazing assortment of side dishes (salads, corn, pastas, and much more) and finish at the main course station: slowly turning beef steak, sausages, chicken (the bacon wrapped chicken is unbelievably good). You pick exactly what you desire and the serving size you want. Among the newer Market choices, Pampas is also one of the most popular. (Critic Favorite)

Farmers Market Poultry
Jim Cascone of Huntington Meats has taken flight with the experts at Farmers Market Poultry. The chicken here is more flavorful than any found on freezer shelves in chain stores, the turkey comes from several exceptional purveyors (try the ground turkey as an outstanding substitute for ground beef), and fresh eggs and exotic fowl are also readily available.
