Score 86/100 · Order: Shawarma from the deli counter · $10–16
Balboa International Market's hot counter turns out shawarma, kabobs, and rotisserie chicken at grocery prices. Seating is minimal, so plan to take it home.
Local tip: Shop the bakery aisle on your way out — the bread is baked in-house daily.
