A great collection of food trucks as well as a beer garden with lots of local brews on tap. Try Masa’s Yatai for an incredible and authentic Japanese meal, or Bortolotti’s pizza for wood fired pizza by slice or whole pie. Across the street, next to Healthy Pet, is Tam’s Vietnamese, which is a local favorite and has the best Bahn Mi sandwich outside of Vietnam.
