Best noodle bowls ever! I usually go here in the winter for a warm bowl of noodles, but like all the other restaurants on this corner, they have outdoor seating and seasonal dishes.

Upscale (but not too upscale!) Mexican restaurant... you have to try the "Mexico City Corn on the Cob." Outdoor seating in the summer, cool lights, nice place to hang out and get a margarita.

Best coffee in town. The owner roasts his own coffee beans over wood fire, it's a must try. They have all these fancy and odd coffee contraptions, but you can always get a plain ol' latte too.
