Hands down best Italian food in the city, especially if you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine. It's small and dimly lit which makes it very cozy and romantic. Perfect for date night!

Best Thai food in town. They're the restaurant with the big swings for seats if you go in a group! They also have a great happy hour with creative cocktails. It can get pretty packed during peak hours. But while you're there, you can always catch something at the Broadberry!

I'm not ashamed to admit that I have spent QUITE a bit of time at 3 monkeys. They have the BEST (I am not exaggerating) bacon cheese fries, they're called monkey fries and make sure you ask for extra ranch. Also, the best happy hour deals and hours you'll find in town. They have happy hour every day from 4-8pm. Must try the cucumber ginger fizz cocktail (my fav!)
