$15 limit would be pre tax / tip, and includes lunch menus and specials. Suggestions?

examples:

Albashas - Gyro Plate
Rama - Pad Thai
Bistro Byronz - Back of the Stove Chicken

A large Mitchell omelette at Louie's will set you back $12.

If you're with another person, an Albasha's Meza is the way to go. Feta cheese salad, hummos, Baba ghanouj, kibbi, falafel, grape leaves, cabbage rolls, rice, chicken and gyros for $24. It's an ungodly amount of food.

You can get a solid po-boy and fries at Downtown Seafood for $10-$12. They make a decent burger too.

A large hangover ramen at Umami is $15. And a bowl of pho at Dang's is $12. Same price for a noodle bowl.

Al-Noor lunch buffet


Did they bring it back? They had cut it out after the 2016 floods. I was a sad son of a bitch when they told me it was gone. It wasn't a huge buffet in terms of variety, but it was well curated. And the naan they made for you was excellent.
The buffet at that Indian place on Coursey, across from George's and the movie theater is really good. Almost as good as al-Noor.

That's OK. I thought you were talking about Curry and Kabob. That's the place I was referring too. Man, I miss their buffet.

Was the Jamaican buffet at Ronnie's Ribs (RIP). Ten bucks would get you some of the best food in the city.
