This place is great to grab a beer. And their food is so good - not bar food at all. Get the tacos al carbon - and if you're a vegetarian like me, then get them with seitan. We're regulars.

It's across town, but this is probably my favorite vegetarian restaurant I've ever been to. I get the chipotle tacos and the buffalo tempeh strips are sooo good too.

Really good, all local, make their own ketchup - that whole thing. Super yummy and about a 10-15 minute walk. Perfect for the not so greasy burger. If you want the greasy dive though, try Rotier's.

Amazing brunch spot. It's on the other side of town, but is only a 10-15 minute drive. There's usually a wait, so head over before your super hungry.

Want a quick bite, Baja Burrito is the jam. Nice weather and you can eat out on the patio. It's nothing fancy, but it takes care of my weekly guacamole fix. Don't be scared of the line, it moves fast.
