Chinese just too many to choose from in the Bay Area.

Sandwiches:

Roxies Food Center - SF staple. Consistent. Their Dutch crunch is bananas.
Saigon Sandwiches- Best Viet sandwich in SF. Best deal in town.
Little Luccas- Big sandwiches for very good price, garlic sauce is crack, eat immediately or turns into nasty soggy mess.
Philly Cheese Steak shop - Crack, but also heartattack
AG Ferrari's - Deli coldcut Style
Guerra's Deli - Pretty good, but whack @#%$ customer service.
Quincy's - Very very good hot pastrami, comes with fruit of the day
Mortys Deli- Good Hot sandwiches, a lot of choices. Reuben is whatsup.
Le Piett's Deli-Homemade sourdough bread
West Portal Sub Center - Staple, but overrated
Gene's liquor - Cheap, poorman's sub center. Solid.
Yellow Submarie - Solid joint, but their rolls has too much bread, I think its a Boston sub style.
Pluto's- Pretty good sandwiches, but their salad is their best thing.
Albertson's- $5 Prosciutto sandwich is a deal, forsure.
Sunrise Deli - Falafel & Shawarma sandwiches.
Ali Baba Cave- Best Shawarmas
Gyro King- Very good falafel sandwich
Millers East Coast Deli - Jewish east coast NY deli. BEST pastrami sandwich, and reuben sandwich in San Francisco. This place is the best for hot pastrami. I love hot pastrami, and tried it everywhere and this is the mecca of SF.

Millers:



I heard Darby Dan's & Marina Sub is crackin too.

Thats all I can remember right now. Sandwiches is seriously all I eat, if you want to know which SFSU cafe has the best sandwich, hit me up.

If you like sandwiches, you should check out Mr. Pickles. They got one by DCPD and one in SSF. It's pretty good imo..

I second that, number 17 all day. And Scoma's in Sausalito is off the hook. How about La Corneta on Mission Street for bangin' super tacos. I know y'all aint ready, but U Lee on Hyde and Jackson is a hidden gem in SF, in my opinion it's the best damn Chinese food.

Moose's in North Beach

tommys joint on van nes and geary, and the gold mirror on 18th and taravel

Roxies and Darby Dans...all you need.

Chinese Food: Hunan Home on Jackson in Chinatown
Sandwich: Little Luccas
Filipino food: Tribul in San Bruno
Diners: Peninsula Fountain and Grill in Palo Alto off University
Mexican food; La Altena on Mission betweem 22nd and 21st St.
Bugers: Jeffrey's in San Mateo on B St.
Japanese: There's a couple in SF. Forgot the name but there is one on the corner of 1st and geary and the other is on 4th and Clement.

Ive been to Mr Pickies and its dumb average.

Co-sign. La VIc's= overrated. Plus, Iguana's is around the corner and is much better.

The Taco Truck on Trimboli Way in Fremont is pretty good. The burritos are huuuge and only like $5. @#%$ takes me like 2 days to finish

Mexican- Tres Amigos in San Mateo
Japanese- Akagi in San Bruno
Japanese- Kamameshi in South City
Filipino- Gerrys Grill in Union City (not really traditional but reminds me of the PI b/c they had a bunch of em... and they have san mig light too )

Late Night Eats?

I need a place that's open on the late night I mean that's open past midnight. I can't stand to go to Mels' / Denny's etc...

I know of Top Dog in Berkeley and the place at Lucky Chances Casino in Colma but, I need to know of any other spots and what kind of food they serve! Damn! Now I'm hungry!

Kinder's is serious. Both the Hercules and Benicia locations are always on point.

Filipino
Fil-Am = best bbq chicken [dirt cheap too]
Kuyas = good and affordable
Lunetas (sp?) Grill = hella expensive but soo good [you'll impress your non-filipino friends lol]

There's only like 2 places I go for late night grub. One is DAIMO in the Pacific East mall area in El Cerrito. They open till 3am and serve some mean chinese...if your into to that. Also in San Pablo (if your on my East Bay side), there is a place called Americana that is open 24/7 and has a good steak buritto and pizza.
