Doritos Debuts Its First Restaurant Inside Crypto.com Arena
Doritos is leveling up the late-night game at the iconic Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles with the launch of its first-ever Doritos After Dark restaurant. Unveiled today, this bold culinary experience brings the iconic Doritos crunch to an exclusive menu, featuring everything from spicy appetizers to innovative entrees and desserts—all available to ticket holders during events at the arena.
Think Flamin’ Hot Limón margaritas, Spicy Sweet Chili ramen burritos, and Texas-style loaded nachos topped with BBQ brisket—all infused with that signature Doritos flair. Carolyn Braff, vice president of culinary marketing at Frito-Lay, shared the vision behind the move, saying, “The globally inspired flavors of the Doritos After Dark menu will invite late-night food fans to see the creative and surprising ways Doritos can enhance their favorite meals and cocktails.”
But the Doritos experience doesn’t stop there. For one night only on November 15, Doritos is taking its flavors to the streets with the Doritos Night Market pop-up at L.A. LIVE, right next to the arena. Open to the public, this neon-filled event will serve up Doritos After Dark bites from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. PT, ahead of one of the year’s biggest concerts.
Doritos first launched its After Dark concept in 2022 with pop-up ghost kitchens in New York and Los Angeles, followed by an appearance at SXSW in 2023. Now, the Doritos After Dark restaurant at Crypto.com Arena aims to bring that same electrifying energy and flavor-packed experience to one of the most legendary venues in the country. Ticketholders can snag a spot at the restaurant on a first-come, first-served basis, or try out the recipes themselves at DoritosAfterDark.com.
