- Pizza at Newport Pizza in Ocean Beach (ideally accompanied by a beer :-) I love the crust here and the wonderous yeasty smell of the place.

Super Concina, had pork in adobo sauce, $3.99 for a small plate, great size for lunch. You can also get a large for $5.99 or a combo choice of 2 for $7.99.

Marisco's Truck on Univ & 35th., fish taco for $.99 with soup. Always great.

Ranch 99 takeout counter after 7pm. 2 items + white rice for $2.59

Wow, that's an amazing deal. Too bad I don't live closer.

Clearly, they're trying to move the food out before they close so they don't have to toss it. How's the quality of the products and how's the freshness?

[Green_Turtle]

You're right, it's whatever is sitting in the steam trays at the end of the day. It's still good though since it was probably cooked in the afternoon for the dinner rush.

Just an update:

I went last night and they changed the start time to after 7:30pm for the discount.

My pick is Vine Cottage in La Mesa. I love to get their house salad for $5, really good salad. And I follow that with the lamb chops appetizer, 4 lamb chops of very good quality for $11.

Chicken doner at Kabob Shop in Mira Mesa or downtown. Yum. Don't know how much it is exactly, but definitely less than $10. If you add their awesome fries, it might get to $10, but I doubt it.

Flat breads at Alforon - Soujok or Chicken Tawook - $5.75

Banh Mi at K-Sandwiches - $2.75

TJ Oyster Bar - Fish tacos - $0.99 (highly recommended best bang for your buck... see pic)
