Downtown(ish)'s cheap lunch treats

1. Blue Cube   Downtown L.A.

Burgers + other grilled lunch items are decent + Japanese-ish plate lunches w/ rice go down well.


Blue Cube
2. El Taurino   Westlake

Super-bueno, old-school tacos + tamales, 24/7. Good juke box, too. Ole!


El Taurino
3. Warung Cafe   Downtown L.A.

Asian. Fusion. Hip. Cool. Spicy. Satisfying. Haiku.

4. Langer's Deli   Westlake

Foot-high pastrami + rising. Beware the ultra-greasy latkes. Take home a homemade jar of pickles. Classic, in a comforting granny sort of way. Free, non-obvious parking a couple hectic blocks away; call ahead for curbside pickup. Did you lose something is the gaps of the well-worn booths? Don't fret, I'm betting it's still there.

5. Mama's Hot Tamales Cafe   Westlake

More flavors of authentic tamales from around Mexico and Central America than a gringo can shake a refresco at. Try them all, buen provecho.
