Tacos Victor
My son calls this the "Freddie Mercury restaurant" due to the large portrait of Emiliano Zapata on the back wall. Good tacos.
Snowdon Deli
Skip the line at Schwartz's: Snowdon Deli is just as good. I prefer the beef brisket to the smoked meat.
Monsieur Poulet Frit
Fried chicken stall located inside an Asian grocery store. Fluffy and crispy coating. Gloves provided.
Restaurant Jolee
Be prepared to be the only ones sitting down among the steady stream of people ordering take out. Highly recommend the (spicy!) Kotu Roti. Energetic Bollywood songs blare from two TVs. Same server since 2005.
Oriental Fuzion
Don't be confused by the all-you-can-eat Kanda: enter with your head held high, confidently proclaim your wish for dim sum, and the waitresses will point you down the spiral stairs to this entirely different restaurant in the basement. Really good.
Miran 米兰维吾尔餐厅
Tasty family-style Uyghur restaurant with interesting daily specials. Saw a toddler expertly handling a metal skewer (of lamb) that was nearly as tall as he was.
Schwartz’s Deli
[REVIEW FROM 2005] I once overheard a chick order a "lean" sandwich with a diet coke, and then asking if they had salads. Moron.
