Places to Eat

So many restaurants to choose from, but these are some that we've been to...
This place has fun decor and good food. Sunday brunch is delicious. Take a left out of the apartment building and the restaurant is on the corner. (You don't have to cross any streets.)

My husband and I were here only once, but the food was so good and the staff was friendly and attentive. (We overheard a couple at the next table talking about how cool the bathroom was. Next time, we'll check it out.)

Friendly staff; good food, reasonably priced. It is BYOB with a $5 corking fee. We haven't yet ordered take-out from here, but they do deliver.
