TLC: While the cakes made the "Boss" famous, the cannolis are some of the best you'll find. Don't forget to say hi to Buddy!

Russy C!: Amazing Tibetan food. Everything I've i had has been good. Ask for the Really hot sauce, it's purple. Then have the Tsampa cake for dessert.

Andrea Barrezueta: Their lunch sandwiches are really tasty! The chipotle chicken on ciabatta is heavenly!

Club Monaco: Mediterranean-inspired tapas! Round up a group of friends for the entire menu option for $420 - "The Whole Shebang."
