Food Scene

Great family friendly place for Italian, with plenty of outdoor seating (and powerful headlamps!). Have never had a dish there that wasn't solid - we tend to eat there 1-2 times a month. Weds they do 50% off bottles.

Delicious place for Chinese / Shanghainese food. I know Dumplings is in its name, but the one dish I wouldn't recommend if you're a dumpling snob is their soupy dumpling (xiao long bao). Everything else is quite yummy!

Amazing Mexican food, specializing in moles. Tortillas are freshly handmade. Not the place for tacos/burritos, but rather homecooked stews, etc.

Really yummy pan-Asian dishes, esp. noodles. Small place, so if you can't get a spot, order take-out! There's a bit of outdoor seating too but it can get chilly.
