Bay Cities Italian Deli & Bakery

A great italian american deli which has the most amazing sandwiches, hot dishes and cold side dishes. for the sandwiches you can either order at the counter if you don’t mind to wait or they have premade sandwiches and CONTAINER ready side dishes. THe godmother is their signature sandwich but they have plenty of others to choose from. it does get quite busy during lunch time so either get there early or except to wait.

Belle Vie Food & Wine

A cozy little french place that really resembles the BRASSERIES in paris. the food is quite good, simple and more home style cooking.

Jon & Vinny's

One of the newer restaurants from the chefs that brought you animal and son of a gun. and this place doesn’t DISAPPOINT, they have a large variety of italian dishes from pastas to pizzas to meat and everything in between. They also have a little wine cellar where you can just taste and buy wines, and only natural wines. apparently they also serve breakfast, so it could be a nice option the next time i am in town as it is right around the corner.
