Food Scene
Best NYC style thin crust pizza in town. Maybe better than in NYC. They import some ingredients from Italy. Closed on Sundays! It's just $3.75/slice tax in. An average person would eat 2 slices, a really hungry one 3, and a beast would eat 4.

Go here for brunch. It is kinda small, so might be a bit of a wait if you go during peak times. But it's worth it!

Great and cozy cocktail bar. It's inside the old bank building. And the best part it's right across the street. Great place to start the night.

This is a brand new addition to our neighborhood. It's not a nightclub, but more of a lounge. Open Thu-Sun (I think). It's a bit pretencious, high society vibes tho. And the service is lacking. Ok for a quick drink just to check it out, if it's still early. Otherwise be prepared to wait in line.
