Another local favorite. All the great regular Chinese dishes and a full service Sushi Bar, too. Love the Mia Tia and their many different martinis. You wine be disappointed.

Best Thai food tucked away in a little plaza. Only 4 tables and a bar but big on freshness and taste. I literally eat here once a week. Family owned. Love Drunken noodles (I ask for very mild because they are spicy), Fresh Rolls with peanut sauce and of course Pad Thia.

A little upscale, calm atmosphere, a bit pricier than the other restaraunts I mention but, Very good. Lots of outdoor seating. Gets real busy after 6pm. A local fav for dinner.
