Sitting atop the venerable Welch Ave. Station, this pizza parlor is most notable for its nostalgic, basement-like atmosphere. Check out the groovy Star Trek TNG cross section poster of the Enterprise.
Though new, Joy's Mongolian Grill serves up some refreshingly authentic dishes. None of it can be found on the menu, but try ordering "Bao" and your foray into the Chinese language will be rewarded.
An old favorite, Little Taipei is notable the chili oil at their condiment station. It's not always available, but try ordering the Cold Sesame Noodles if your'e up for something different.
The burritos are good, but the banana leaf tamales are really something special. Also, the torta really hits the spot if bread is more your thing.
The best place for BBQ in town. Great sauce, but more importantly, the meat can stand on its own. Their homemade lemonade is legendary, and they'll even fix you an Arnold Palmer if you want.
A recent addition, Charlie Yoke's is one of the few places that has space for you and your two dozen friends. The food is solid bar fare with the notable addition of some really satisfying grinders.
Though most people go there to dance, their restaurant is amazing. Pan asian cuisine with a dash of upscale atmosphere. Get the Duck Pho for an almost too rich rendition of the Vietnamese classic.
Few places are as solid as the Fighting Burrito. It somehow combines fast, affordable, and delicious inside the tortilla of your choice. For the thrifty AND hungry, order the nachos.
Great single origin coffee with a quirky atmosphere, this coffee shop also has the best desserts in town. For a strange but good start to your morning, order the Alarm Clock (Orange Juice + Coffee.)
With solid coffee accompanied by breakfast and lunch options, this place is perfect for long study sessions. Order the grilled cheese w/ roasted red pepper bisque for an adult spin on a kids' classic.
Nothing is better than waking up Saturday morning and sitting down in front of Feijoada accompanied by one of their fine Bloody Marys.
