1. Burrito Bandidos
Toronto, ON M5V 2G7
(416) 593-9191
Category:
Tex-Mex
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
For the record: This is the original location of the restaurant formerly- known-as- Burrito Boyz. The original two owners who created the deliciousness of a Toronto-style grilled burrito have split up. One kept the original name, one the original…More »
2. Burrito Boyz - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M5V 2G7
(416) 593-9191
Category:
Tex-Mex
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
Burrito Boyz was the first and still the best of Toronto's Burrito grilling establishments. This is totally not a California burrito kind of thing to do.
HOW TO BOYZ:
Line up behind the people not holding numbers. Choose your size and meat (veg…More »
3. Sushi & Bento Restaurant
Really this is 3 and 1/2 stars, but I'm rounding up for the taste of the mayo-laden spicy salmon rolls.
For cheap sushi lunch near Dundas and University, head to Sushi and Bento. I've been here plenty of times and always get the same thing- lunch…More »
4. BQM Diner
Toronto, ON M5V 2A2
(416) 792-7792
Each new branch of this Toronto-born restaurant has taken on its own little theme. Stem Diner was a historic landmark on the old Queen West strip, back when instead of Crocs and Esprit there was The 360 and the old-fashioned furniture store. I'm glad…More »
5. Bangkok Garden Restaurant
For lunch time speed and fulfilling all your Thai dreams, go up the stairs to the west side of the Elmwood Spa. This place used to be a little hole in the wall basement, but it's moved up many notches since then. There are fairly standard items like…More »
6. Balzac's Coffee Roastery
Toronto, ON M5A 3C4
(416) 207-1709
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Venues & Event Spaces
Neighbourhoods: Distillery District, West Don Lands
Good for chillin on the patio or reading the Sunday Times in the loft, Balzac's is the place I jog to to weekend mornings because it's far enough away that I'm ready for a break by the time I get there. On my way home, I might jog back, or take the…More »
7. The Fish Store & Sandwiches
Toronto, ON M6G 1B7
(416) 533-2822
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Seafood
Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Bickford Park
I was surprised by the small-ness of the inside of the resto. This is the ideal place to pick up a quick fish sandwich on your way to the park or for a quick lunch while shopping on College Street. Of the group, those who asked to eat in got much…More »
8. Dumpling House Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 2E7
(416) 596-8898
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
For $3, the 'small' soup is big enough for 3. For $6 the 12 steamed dumplings are a steal. We walked in here while touring Toronto for a unique experience. I read the Yelp reviews and felt good about going in. I had read good things about the green…More »
9. Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu
Toronto, ON M6G 1L3
(416) 537-0972
Category:
Korean
Neighbourhoods: Koreatown, Palmerston, Bickford Park
Ever since a cheap eats review of this place on CBC radio, I've been eager to try home made tofu. However, Korean food doesn't really appeal to all my friends. So, I've resorted to take-out while my friends go across the street to Tacos el Asador.…More »
10. Yung Sing Pastry Shop - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M5T 1L2
(416) 979-2832
A good place to go on nice, sunny days to escape the office towers surrounding University Ave. The tofu bun and the fried rice buns are similar. Buttered or put in a pan to heat up, the buns are then filled with fried scrambled eggs-like tofu with…More »
11. Island Foods - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M5T 1G1
(416) 599-9339
Category:
Caribbean
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
I crave roti ever since a friend introduced me to them at this Island Foods. I'd had some in the past, but never, ever like this. It's quick, on my way home from work and D-lish. I always get the shrimp roti with a little bit of hot sauce. The roti…More »
12. Naan-N-Curry
San Francisco, CA 94122
USA
(415) 664-7225
CHEAP! INDIAN! FOOD!
Service is terrible. They have this laid back sense of when you need to order, get your food, or pay. There is a system, but it is not immediately obvious on how or when to order, pay or get a drink even.
So, here are the rules…More »
13. Arizmendi Bakery
San Francisco, CA 94122
USA
(415) 566-3117
Best scones in the world! I once flew 3000 miles for 2 nights in SF and went straight to Arizmendi to get an Oat Scone (small currants, lots of crunchy whole oats), and a Corn Cherry scone (like cornbread with dried, sweet cherries covered with a…More »
14. La Cocina Mexican Grill - CLOSED
Chicago, IL 60604
USA
(312) 427-2094
Categories:
Mexican,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: The Loop
Not just for students. Quick, cheap, delicious food with red and green salsa on the table to add to your tacos and free chips. Horchata, as others have said, is a huge hit! Less than $10 for lunch! That salsa makes my mouth water thinking of it.…More »
15. Mr. Lucky's 24-7
Las Vegas, NV 89136
USA
(702) 693-5000
Categories:
Diners,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Eastside
A variety of foods on the menu including salads, pasta, pizza, steaks, seafood and breakfast all day. Ask for the $7.77 special- a smallish size steak topped with a skewer of 3 shrimp, mashed potatoes and a salad for less than $8 and available 24…More »
16. Big Star
Chicago, IL 60622
USA
(773) 235-4039
Plaid shirts- cowboy style, country music on the turntable, $3 beers, and the best fish taco in town? Big Star is the best.
Honestly, I don't like country music, but somehow it just felt right. The guys I was with tried hitting on the bartender by…More »
