Considering how good it is, the prices are amazingly low.
LaVal's

If you like pretty good pizza, pretty cheap pizza. There's also a La Burrita and a nice outside-ish eating area.
Gypsy's
2519 Durant Ave; an Italian restaurant in the Asian food court
Gypsy's is soooooo good (and sooooooooo bad for you). Still, if you want really good, fairly cheap Italian it's hard to beat. I have yet to try a calzone there, but it's on my list of life goals
India Palace
2160 University Ave
The all you can eat buffet is fantastic
Ici
2948 College Ave
Homemade gourmet ice cream. Creative and traditional flavors, and the cones have a sweet little surprise at the bottom. It's worth the wait in line.
Bittersweet Cafe

The best hot chocolate (and spicy hot chocolate) anywhere + decadent truffles and other chocolate-related items and desserts. Lots of imported chocolates for sale.
Planet Juice
2202 Shattuck Ave
For a treat on a hot day, I LOVE Planet Juice . It's definitely splurging, since they are overpriced, but they have really, really fresh squeezed juices (both fruit and vegetable). You can get anything from fresh carrot juice to a blueberry/raspberry milkshake/smoothie (Hint: I don't go for the carrot juice.)
