Cheap but delicious eats in Berkeley

This post covers cheap (<$10) restaurants in the Berkeley Area.

Mexican
-Gordo - Awesome mouthwatering burritos for <$6.00. This is actually in Albany, but is very accessible with a car. On Solano and Santa Fe.
-Picante - Christine Payne swears by this place, but it's more expensive and not as delicious as Gordo. On 7th avenue near Gilman
-Cancun - Right next to campus on Allston Way and decent if a bit pricey.

Thai
-Thai Noodle - If Garish pink neon doesn't scare you, the food is delicious. This is on Shattuck near University.
-Dara - Thai/Lao style. A little more pricey, but their stuffed eggplant is delicious. On Shattuck and Cedar
-Cha Am - Right next door to Dara. Also good.


Indian
-Vik's - Super cheap and delicious, but not much of a restaurant. On 4th avenue.

Other
-Cheeseboard Collective - Morning style rolls, muffins, breads, and cheeses. They also have artisan pizza in the evenings, but you have to take whatever they are making that day. Always vegetarian. Shattuck and Vine
-Boogie Woogie Bagel Boy - Best bagels in Berkeley area. Gilman and Santa Fe
-Peet's Coffee - Berkeley's local coffee which has become a national chain.
