Lunch near Huntington Theater in Boston?

Will be attending a matinee at the Huntington Theater. Any suggestions for a good lunch place nearby?
Needn't be upscale.

    At the risk of not being able to get a table in the future, I highly recommend Moby Dick--right across from the Huntington Theater. Great Persian home cooking--kebabs, lentil stew, salads, humuus, etc.

        There are not a lot of choices really close to the Huntington, but it is only a ten minute walk from the Pru and Brasserie Jo. The Huntington subscirbers handbook states that you can get a free dessert with lunch with your theater ticket, if that interests you at the Summer Shack on Dalton St, again not too far away.. Uno is right next door and if you just want a salad or some soup, it's not dreadful and very easy to drop into. If you are going to see Fences, you will love it.

          I've had some good - and inexpensive - lunches at the Pho place on the oher side of Huntington Ave. Name might be Pho and I. Good bun. I go to Huntington with a woman in her eighties, so without being able to walk far, I felt eternally sentenced to Pizzerio Uno. This is better!!
