Cool spot for dine in pizza. Really great bread and crust. Solid cocktails too. If you’re into meaty pizzas, highly recommend the Lady Diavola. Roasted Veggies with the melted manchego are also fab.

Perfectly kitschy Chinese food spot with an incredible interior. Super tasty food that’s great for takeout too. Pro tip: stop by Polite Provisions for a cocktail before or after, or order your food and eat it at Polite Provisions if there’s a long wait. (They’re owned by the same company.)
Limited seating, reservation recommended.

Probably the best pasta I’ve had in recent memory. A bit off the beaten path in a cute tiny restaurant, but travels well and makes for great delivery too!

Favorite pizza delivery. Their almost lasagna pizza is phenomenal. We like it on their “thin” crust, well-done, and double cut. If you order their normal, it’s VERY thick.
