I work in Burbank... here are the least icky:
There's a Zankou one block north of IKEA, on the west side of SF Rd.
Corner Bakery, while not a GOOD place, has edible food -- their beef stew was tasty and they do have the best iced tea ever.
Just over the bridge at Five Points (Victory Bl, Victory Pl, Burbank Bl) is Guantanamera, for Cuban food.
In the "downtown Burbank" area: Knight Restaurant (south of Orange Grove) has great Greek salad and passable kabobs; Chadaka Thai (south of Magnolia) has tasty Thai but not authentic, and a little too modern-cool (the waiter wears his collar up, that's all I have to say about that); Granville is excellent but expensive; the Seoul Korean BBQ is quite passable; Picanha Churrascaria is meat-heavy but tasty; Northend Pizza is tasty enough; Market City Caffe is tasty but VERY salty.

You're going to have to drive away from there, so the following thread should get you started in the right direction:

If you are looking for within walking distance, you don't have too much to choose from. (Chevy's, CPK, P.F. Changs, Macaroni Grill)
If you feel like getting in the car and going down Magnolia until Hollywood way, you can hit up Portos for Cuban sandwiches.
Across from Costco there is a Mexican joint that isn't bad.
Also, on Glenoaks there is a place called Cafe Colombia that serves decent South American food.
Finally, although I have never gone, I've heard good things about a place called Chili John's on Burbank Blvd.
