"DragonEats is the SoMa lunch destination for the days when you feel like another soup-salad combination from Ladle & Leaf will turn you into kale and send you over the edge. The counter-service Vietnamese mini-chain (with locations in Hayes Valley and the Haight) does solid bánh mì that cater well to the lanyard-wearing office crowd—everything is to-go, and the midday rush moves quickly. Go for the roast pork version with a generous amount of jalapeños and pickled carrots and daikon, and one of the extra-strong iced coffees to get you through your impending 3pm slump." - Julia Chen
