What to Eat at a Clippers Game at Intuit Dome: Best Food, Prices, and the All-You-Can-Eat Lounge
We go to a lot of Clippers games, and we've filmed the food at Intuit Dome three times: the grab-and-go concessions in its first season, the all-you-can-eat lounge that comes with floor seats, and the new menu items for 2025-26. The short answer: get the double smash burger, the LA street dog, or the chicken tenders with waffle fries, and buy the $10 refillable cup. Most of the newer items were just okay for the price. Here's everything we tried, what it cost, and how the arena's checkout-free system works.
New Clippers season, new food at Intuit Dome (2025-26)
Quick guide: what to eat at Intuit Dome
Unlimited food and drinks in the floor-seat lounge
What to get (and what to skip).
Double smash burger
Grab-and-go markets on the concourseOur #1 pick at Intuit Dome
Get: The burger: two small smashed patties, lots of cheese, and a pickle ($16, or $13.50 at the lower member price we saw)
If we only get one thing at a Clippers game, it's this. It's well seasoned, a little salty, and very cheesy, with a soft bun that's really good. It's warm rather than hot since it sits in a heated case, and there are no veggies besides the pickle, but it's the most reliable regular item in the building. The lounge has an A5 Wagyu version that tastes a little fresher, but the regular one is the move on the concourse.
LA street dog
Grab-and-go markets on the concourseBacon-wrapped hot dog
Get: The LA street dog. Look for one that just came out of the back.
Bacon-wrapped, with grilled onions, ketchup, mustard, mayo, and jalapeños already on top. Lisa gave it a 10 out of 10. Our friend Oscar told us it rivals the street carts outside, and it can, it just isn't sizzling like one on the street. The only downside is that everything comes pre-topped, so you can't adjust it.
Chicken tenders and waffle fries
Grab-and-go markets on the concourseOriginal or Ktown (Korean fried chicken) with waffle fries
Get: The original chicken tenders with waffle fries. The Ktown Korean fried chicken version is a gamble.
The tenders are super crunchy, a bit dry, and a safe bet when you're hungry. The Korean fried chicken was a roulette: some pieces were juicy and tender, others had steamed in the box and lost their crunch, though we still liked it better than the overly sweet version at Dodger Stadium. Timing matters for the waffle fries too. Eat them right away, because ours went cold and dropped to a 5 out of 10.
Spicy tuna sushi roll
Refrigerated case in the marketsGrab-and-go sushi
Get: The spicy tuna roll
You unwrap it like a convenience store kimbap. The tuna is good and properly spicy, and the only problem is cold rice from the fridge case. If the rice were warm, we'd get it every time. The veggie roll with cucumber was a 5 out of 10. For 2025-26 they switched from the hand roll to a cut sushi roll. Watch the labels, because the spicy tuna and veggie signs were swapped the night we went.
Pretzel
Grab-and-go markets on the concourseSnack ($9.50)
Get: One pretzel to share
Soft and loaded with butter. It's pretty good, but it's hard to mess up a pretzel, and at $9.50 we wished it came with nacho cheese. Good for kids or a halftime snack.
What we'd skip
New for 2025-26Not worth the price
Get: Skip the birria stack ($15), the spicy chicken sando ($16), and the $16 cheese pizza.
The birria stack came out burning hot, but the tortilla was flimsy, the middle was soft, and it needed more meat and more sauce. The spicy chicken sando had coleslaw and a crispy coating, but the chicken was chewy and a little dry, so we'd rather have the tenders on their own. And $16 for a cheese pizza is robbery. We didn't get to try the 600-calorie cookie that reporter Farbod Esnaashari posted about, because it was sold out.
North Red Lounge (floor seats, all you can eat)
Floor level, included with floor seats at Clippers gamesAll-you-can-eat food, cocktails, desserts, and candy
Get: The A5 Wagyu cheeseburger (worth the line), the forest floor mushroom cavatappi, the octopus and shrimp, a cocktail like the guava mule or lychee martini, and full-size candy for later
It feels like an airport lounge, but way better. Across two visits we had a smoked green chile chicken tamale pie, meatballs, Caesar salad, octopus and big shrimp, California rolls and sashimi, prime rib carved to order, miso glazed salmon, mini tostadas, pizza, tenders, waffle fries, a red, white, and blue Clippers cheesecake, donuts, and a full bar with complimentary cocktails. The prime rib ran chewy (we got end pieces), the salmon was dry, and the sushi rice was cold and thick, but the Wagyu burger, the mushroom pasta, and the octopus and shrimp were all good. The big downside: there are almost never seats, and halftime is chaos. Come early, expect to stand, and know that staff make you open canned drinks before you leave so you can't take them home.
Free shuttle to the game
Park and ride lots, including El Monte for the SGVGetting there
Get: Reserve a free shuttle seat in the Intuit Dome app after you buy tickets
We rode the free charter bus from the SGV and it was simple and smooth. Intuit Dome runs free shuttles from park and ride lots in Woodland Hills, West LA, the South Bay, the San Gabriel Valley (El Monte Station), Downtown LA (Union Station), and Norwalk for select events, plus Metro shuttles from the C and K Lines. Book ahead in the app. Your reservation covers the ride back too.

Good to know before you go
- Intuit Dome is cashless and mostly checkout-free. Link a card in the Intuit Dome app and set up Game Face ID (a face scan), then walk into a market, grab what you want, and get charged as you leave.
- Look for ticket deals with food credit. We once bought two tickets that came with $40 in food and beverage credit.
- Lines are fast. We ate five things before tip-off and still had 23 minutes to spare, so showing up 15 to 20 minutes early is enough for the regular concessions. For the lounge, come early: it was packed even 47 minutes before tip-off.
- Bring your refillable souvenir cup back each game.
- Excess food from events is donated to local community organizations.
- Our 2025-26 floor seats were courtesy of our friends at Chu's Packaging. We bought our own tickets for the other two games.
