An Italian Food Mart with a huge wine selection (you can have a glass while you shop) and amazing sandwiches, deli, pizza ingredients, etc. You can head to the back to the wine cellar to sit if you want to taste a few wines or eat in.

Incredible food in a quaint atmosphere. Menu changes regularly, and it's always fresh and truly homemade. Italian and BYOB with a $5 cork fee. Slightly pricier but definitely worth it for a great night out!

A great outdoor bar with a couple food trucks that rotate regularly. I love the frozen key lime pie cocktail! Good drinks and a very "Texas" setting.

Good Happy Hour appetizers and a great rooftop experience! The happy hour nachos are the best. Very large too, so even on a busy day they can usually get you a table. To get to the rooftop walk directly inside and all the way back to the back stairway (past the indoor dining).

Above Uchi, Uchiba is a slightly more affordable and equally delicious Japanese restaurant. It has pretty good happy hour specials if you want to splurge a little!
