Does anyone have recommendations for affordable places to eat near the con?

Thanks.

Has a whole list of restaurants by distance away from the Convention Center, all of which are ranked on a price scale. I made a map in Google Maps of all the least expensive restaurants in the area for anyone who'd like to use it.

There are several food threads, lots of great suggestions.

This site also lists restaurants in the area, sorted by distance from the con center. Most have their own websites linked, which will give you a good idea of prices

My friend and I love authentic Mexican. I don't doubt that there not difficult to come by, but since we'll only be there for a few days we wont have time to try them all.

Can anyone tell me the best, least expensive, and closest place for authentic Mexican?

awesome. This is exactly what i've been looking for. I've never been to San Jose and had no idea what places there were around the Con to eat. This is awesome. now we won't have to worry so much about how much it'll cost to order pizza.
