Cheap Mexican, insanely good. Across the street from the Rockridge BART station.

Hana Zen at Pier39- pricey but just right portions and harmonious mix of flavors.
Everett & Jones (ribs BBQ) Jack London Square, Oakland- laid back, meat falling off the bone smoked ribs, no place to sit during lunch time weekdays or weekends but well worth a visit. Slathering of BBQ sauce, corn bread, charming wait staff. Best part for me was soda drink with ice came in a jar! Yes, like a honey jar. So cool. Talk about atmosphere.

Japacurry Truck in SF. If you work in downtown SF, this is the spot for lunch. There's usually a long line but their japanese curry is delicious. You have to follow their calender though to see where they'll be each day.
