As seen in our May 2014's Cheap Eats issue, we like the Starving Student Spaghetti for $8.50! 続きを読む
Lavazza drip coffee is just $2 with free refills. But we love the breakfasts and savory buckwheat crepes stuffed with ham and Gruyere. 続きを読む
For about $4.75, you can get two eggs, toast, meat, and a cup of coffee for breakfast. But it's the warm service and friendly staff that we think is a huge score. 続きを読む
Our pick: Dot's Famous Breakfast Club for $6.75: Ham, egg, cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomato, with a side of home fries. 続きを読む
Don't miss the banh mi! Sure, you can find cheaper elsewhere, but this one's perfect. That's why it graced the cover of our May 2014 issue! 続きを読む
With more than 20 specialty lunch items that start below $5, you better come ready to order. We like the No 13 sub "all the way" with sopressata, mortadella and prosciutto. 続きを読む
At $7.50, the 12-inch chicken shawerma features warm pita bread, moist chicken, garlic, tahini sauce, slices of Lebanese wild pickles...mmmm. 続きを読む
Frank's Hot Sauce hits your mouth with a purpose! Two drumsticks and fries are just $7...but we like the two piece, two-side dinner with cornbread for $12. 続きを読む
A nominee for the 2014 Elby award for best service, this joint also does a great job with the food. The fried chicken entree for $7 is perfect: Crispy on the outside and moist and juicy on the inside. 続きを読む
Get the gluten-free fried chicken thighs smothered in honey Sriracha sauce and topped with chives! It's $9, not on the menu, and only available on Tuesdays until sold out. 続きを読む
For $5, the daily pick-up special features a generous portion of spaghetti, side salad, and pillowy Italian bread. 続きを読む
Lemon's lunch special is one of the best deals in town. For about $10, you get tender, tangy chicken tikka masala with a slew of sides. 続きを読む
The chicken tikka masala ($8 at lunch, $15 at dinner) is always a good choice, but we also love Raja's special naans, like the Kabuli, crisped with dots of nuts, raisins and honey. 続きを読む
If it's good enough for Super Bowl champ Russell Wilson, it's good enough for us! We like a red slice with sweet Italian sausage, pepperoni and hot cherry peppers for less than $4.
The best value is on Tuesday, when pizzas are half price after 5 p.m. Use your savings to splurge on one of their 15 or so designer pizzas. 続きを読む
Tortillas are handmade and adorn taco platters ($10) with insanely tasty fried potatoes, guacamole, bacon-laced beans or lime-cured onions. A la carte tacos are $3 each! 続きを読む
Fish tacos ($3.75) used to be a twice-a-week special, but now they're available for lunch every day. But expect long-ish lines at this downtown lunch-only spot. 続きを読む
Date night idea: Stop by Monday through Saturday and get the famous perfect egg or any app, plus entree and dessert for $28.

Thai Diner is a classic that's got it right and has the interior design to make you feel like you're inside a Swatch watch. Get a delicious pad thai lunch for just $8. 続きを読む
Mom's Siam's crushed smoke chili condiment highlights pleasant taste-bud inversions of sweet, sour, hot and piquant. The pad thai is $8 at lunch and $10 at dinner. 続きを読む
It's usually packed for a reason: One of the best broths in town, the pho is worth the wait. The No. 12 for $7.25 -- pho tai chan -- is our favorite. 続きを読む
Just $6.25 gets you a full-flavored, basil-and-sprout-adorned pho that is so good we basically inhale it. 続きを読む
Cash only, but at $6.50, we know you'll dig through your change for their pho...in a row of places serving Vietnamese snacks, this is the place you want to stop in. 続きを読む
Their General Tso's chicken for $7.50 at lunch is made with succulent dark meat swaddled and deep fried in a sticky, slightly sweet-spicy batter. It's kinda touristy, but actually a great choice!
On a menu filled with adventurous dishes, the $7.50 general tso's chicken is a great crowd pleaser, especially for those 10 and under who aren't (ever) in the mood for something unfamiliar.
Just $3.25 gets you the perfect burger, which Roy's has been doing for 50 years. Classic American cheese is 50 cents more. We say, if it ain't broke...order two. 続きを読む
he Monday night special doesn't skimp and burgers are just $2. Stop in anytime after 4 p.m. for beef or black bean options and build your burger w/extra special toppings for just a couple bucks more.
Tucked into the menu is something of a secret: The $4 griddle burger. It's a 100% Angus beef patty and way more mouth-watering than the similarly-priced fast food versions.
Nothing is more than $7, but cash only. We like the hand-rolled gorditas, slick with cream and stoked with super spicy chicken.
