1. Olives - CLOSED

There exists a more formal area for eating and then a nice casual bar area that is so chic.…More »
2. Raw Bar
I am a very new yelper and let me just say how much I love you Yelp. I wanted to go for an unforgettable meal with my partner to celebrate simply how amazing we are together. And I researched the highest rated restaurants in the city. I wanted…More »
3. Mirchi Restaurant

7. Sugo Caffe Italia
I recently answered a job offer on Craigslist which stated "In the chaos of unpacked boxes you orchestrate a home masterpiece!" which I quickly answered and got. Basically I curated this woman's art, sacred objects and artifacts collection and…More »
8. Mercato Italian Gourmet
Just a hop skip and a jump from my home, Mercato Italian Gourmet. I have lunched here twice and in two different ways, first of all with a friend indoors and by myself outdoors. The two seating options have two different menus and prices. Outside on…More »
