It’s a given, we all need (and LOVE) food. With all of the studying, tests, and projects, college students get especially hangry. (Trust me, I have experienced this firsthand.) So, what is the solution? Explore the top 10 restaurants around CSUN, of course.
1. Katsu-Ya
9701 Reseda Blvd Northridge, CA 91324; Phone: (818) 678-1700
Japanese with a twist? Excellent service? And, great reviews? Yes, please. One of my favorite restaurants around CSUN.
2. Got Sushi and King’s Bar
9345 Reseda Blvd. Northridge, CA 91324; Phone: (818) 885-6456
Sushi and burgers. Weird combination, but worth a try! The 989 reviews do not lie. This local favorite is out-of-this-world delicious and *BONUS* inexpensive.

3. Lum-Ka-Naad Thai Restaurant
8910 Reseda Blvd, Northridge, CA 91324; Phone: (818) 882-3028
If the food tastes as good as the pictures look, I am in. According to one reviewer, the authentic food is top notch, service is solid, and prices are decent. Some of their best dishes include Panang Curry, Spicy Krabi Chicken, and Kuah Gling. Good luck pronouncing those. 😉

4. Bun Me!
9420 Reseda Blvd Ste. # 5 Northridge, CA 91325; Phone: (818) 993-0438
With most dishes under $10, this Vietnamese restaurant is tasty and affordable! Try the Spring Rolls with Peanut Sauce one day and the Grilled Pork Banh Mi the next. The best part? *CSUN STUDENTS GET A DISCOUNT WITH ID!*
5. Lala’s Kitchen
8450 Reseda Boulevard, Northridge, CA 91324 ; Phone: (818) 812-9207
With 4.5 stars on Yelp, this Filipino eatery is worthy a try! You simply can’t go wrong with traditional dishes ranging from Beef Tapa to Pork Belly Adobo presented in a simply delectable way. Interestingly enough, there are even a few unique menu selections with Mediterranean influences! YUM.

6. Pita Pockets
9127 Reseda Boulevard, Northridge, CA 91324; Phone: (818) 709-4444
Who can resist mouthwatering Mediterranean classics, such as Chicken Schwarma and Beef Kabobs? I certainly can’t. According to the hundreds of reviews, the BEST part is everything is made fresh. Don’t believe me? The famous Laffa Bread is baked right in front of your eyes.

8. California Chicken Café
18445 Nordhoff St. Northridge, CA 91325; Phone: (818) 700-9977

9. Brent’s Delicatessen & Restaurant
19565 Parthenia St, Northridge, CA 91324; Phone: (818) 886-5679
Pros? Classic deli menu, fresh ingredients, friendly staff, reasonable prices, and damn good coffee. Cons? Many people think Brent’s is the BEST deli in LA, so it can be somewhat crowded. But, we all know the best things in life are worth the wait!
