So many to name!

Lao Bei Fang Dumpling House for sure...in addition to the noodle soup and dumplings they also have $2.75 scallion pancake (HUGE portions- easily enough for 2)

In addition...

*Sammy's Halal Cart - $3 for chicken or lamb pita & $5 for chicken or lamb with rice platter (don't forget the incredible GREEN SAUCE!)

*Louie's Pizza on Baxter b/w Ithaca & Judge - $1.50 slices/$11 regular pies, $3 specialty slices (could combine with regular slices for a $6 meal)

*Tacos al Suadero on 37-57 90 St- $2 tacos WITH guacamole....$7 nachos texanos platter that is big enough for 2, delicious quesadillas (AUTHENTIC) for $6. Open 24/7!

*Mama's Empanadas on Northern & 85th - $1 or $1.50 empanadas (some are more expensive) and usually 3-4 will fill you up depending on which types you order. Personally, the Cubanos are my favorite as they are baked and full of flavor...not to mention open 24/7

Watch a 2 minute video about Lao Bei Fang Dumpling House on Whitney Ave in Elmhurst.  Dave Evans from Eat Out tries pulling his own noodles.
