I really love Nobie’s, and il Bracco for date night vibes. Loch Bar is fun if you’re into oysters. Street Food Thai Market is a Thai grocery store with a great little restaurant inside. Lucy for Ethiopian.

like

BCN for upscale dining and Gin drinks Costa Bravo comes in a close 2nd. Enotica Rosa for quality and price, Oporto, Kasra for best Iranian in town, Darband for best Kabab, Kata Robata for sushi, London Sizzler for Indian has been around forever and Fungs Kitchen for truly authentic Chinese but really there are so many great spots. Helen’s in rice village has always been a solid choice too.
