Foodies know that one of the most important elements of exploring a city is the food. Foodies also know that every meal matters — especially lunch. Lunch is the best time to find a casual and affordable spot that showcases the local cuisine. San Jose has a vibrant food scene, so don’t skip lunch in this California city. These are some of the top rated gems for a quick bite in San Jose.

1. Falafel’s Drive-In

This spot ranks number one on multiple sites and is a popular favorite in San Jose. This iconic Mediterranean drive-in is dishing out the best falafel in the city. Stop in for a falafel sandwich and a fresh banana milkshakes. The converted drive-in space offers outdoor seating in a casual environment. As a prime lunch destination, the line may be long, but the service is fast and friendly so you shouldn’t be waiting for long.

2. Bibo’s NY Pizza

If you’re a fan of pizza, Bibo’s is the place to go. They make their dough and sauce in house daily and deliver fun-sized pies with a modern twist. All pizzas are topped with fresh ingredients — and don’t miss their Buffalo mozzarella.

3. Smoking Pig BBQ

If you’re craving a trip down south, check out Smoking Pig BBQ. Be sure to come hungry; feast on some slow-smoked ribs, brisket, & pulled pork in a laid-back setting. Their unforgettable barbecue is served with classic southern sides like mac and cheese and cornbread rolls.

4. Back A Yard

Looking for something more ethnic? Check out Back A Yard’s authentic Jamaican cuisine. Nothing beats these Jamaican comfort classics — curried goat, jerk chicken, coconut rice, plantains, and honey festivals. You can also catch specialties like saltfish and ackee or escoveitch. Don’t forget to grab a Jamaican Ting grapefruit soda while you’re there.

5. Naschmarkt

On the classier end, the Austrian-born chef Matthias Froeschl brings upscale Austrian food at Naschmarkt. Get a European classic such as goulash, wiener schnitzel, or kraut rouladen, all served to impress. Dessert is a must at this restaurant with the Salzburger Knockerl, a souffle of sorts paired with warm berry sauce.
