If you like fish tacos, these are tasty. While Rubio's is a chain, their tacos are really great. They have taco Tuesday deals after 3pm.

Fun, artsy local coffee shop. If you're a coffee snob, not a great place to go--but if you want a fun atmosphere, WiFi, and a place to work on your laptop, this is a good place. Open mic Thurs @ 7pm.
