They have really delicious coffee drinks - my favorite is the arroyo on ice. The breakfast and lunch offerings are also quite exceptional. Also a fun people scene.

Home of the Cruffin. A hybrid of a muffin and a croissant. The filling changes daily. I also like the vegan chocolate cookie and the donuts are incredible.

I love the dyi vibe of this place. it's more low key than other coffee shops on the street. They make some excellent coffee drinks as well as having a really great coffee cake that I get sometimes.

You should really get the hot chocolate here. Or the Mexican coffee with chocolate and hot pepper. This is the only coffee place that stays open later in the evening.

This is my new favorite. They have a great menu and I haven't had anything I didn't like here. The cauliflower starter is so delicious. The pasta with the pork ragu is also outstanding and I love the barbecued pork country rib and fennel sausage. You could split those three and be totally full. They also have a good deal happy hour. I always get a Negroni.

This place is a good value I think. They have a great lunch special that is quite filling and you may not need to eat again for the rest of the day. But I always feel like that when I eat Ramen. It's very delicious ramen and I also like the rice bowls.

This is just really solid and good Tex Mex style tacos with homemade tortillas. It's a neighborhood favorite and the Frio is my personal favorite. They also have Shiner Bock on tap.

This pizza has a special Nancy Silverton related pedigree which is all about the crust. Its bubbly burnt and yet chewy. It's thin and yeasty. The toppings are interesting and exceptional. I love that you can order by size and then they cut it with a scissors.
