Sightglass and Blue Bottle?!? I know, how do you choose? I prefer Sightglass when I want almond milk, they have this great iced coffee with almond milk, vanilla and agave syrup. Yum!

Great for groups as they have a lot of family style seating. I love the pea pancakes at dinner, but brunch is wonderful too. Basically, anytime!

One of the best meals I've had in the city, ever. That good. And service is fantastic, we didn't feel rushed but at the same time the staff was attentive.

Known for the thin crust pizza and pasta. You usually need a reservation, but they do reserve some tables for walk-ins. Get there when they open if you hope to get in that way.

I'm not even a vegetarian (anymore!) and the "Soyrizo" tacos and burritos are delicious. Salsa is the best around. You can buy it at Whole Foods, but fresh from the restaurant itself is the best.

This is a family favorite and our go-to brunch spot since it's just around the block. Get there early, lines are long for brunch on the weekends.

So lucky to have a spa near us! Right now Tuesday is my esthetician, and she's great. Everyone I've had for massage is wonderful and really in-tune with what my body needs.

NOT a burger place, but a salon. I know the owners, and this place is consistently excellent. See Savannah for color and either Jeremy or Phil for cuts.

Really great, environmentally-friendly dry cleaners. Takes a few days to turn things around, so not the place if you need something dry-cleaned by tonight.

A little bit of a walk, but worth it. A very relaxing, spa-like atmosphere and the owners are super customer-service oriented.
