This is my favorite place for coffee and breakfast! You have to try the breakfast croissant. House-made syrups for the coffee and their famous cardamom ocean rolls make this place so good. If the original one is busy, try the newer location in NW Crossing neighborhood.

One of the nicest restaurants downtown, great for a date night or celebration dinner. I love the BBQ Shrimp to start, followed by the Red Fish or Filet Au Poivre. You can't go wrong here, and the cocktail and wine selection are wonderful as well.
