Spin off of the Odd Duck, one of the popular hip, places in town. Sour Duck is a lot more casual with a small menu that covers breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have phenomenal bread and bakery treats as well.

Mi Madre's Restaurant
2201 Manor RdGood, simple, down to earth Mexican and TexMex food.
OK, I'm cheating a bit on this one; it's about a mile away so while I walk to it, I know that's not everybody's cup of tea, especially in the summer. But they feature wonderful savory and sweet kolaches and for vegetarians they use a phenomenal vegan sausage in some kolaches so you won't be missing out.
