"We love Eastside Market because even after 85 years, this Italian deli on the outskirts of downtown still somehow remains a local secret. The sandwiches coming out of here are the messy, old-school red sauce variety that is hard to find elsewhere in LA. The #7 (roast beef, pastrami, and cheese) is probably our favorite, but if you’re feeling ambitious, the D.A. Special (sausage, meatball, roast beef, and pastrami) is your one-way ticket to an all-day nap." - brant cox, garrett snyder
