Craving Indian food? If yes, then this is the best place in town. Satisfy your cravings for authentic chicken tikka masala, lamb vindaloo, palak paneer, garlic naan, and more. They tend to be very crowded right when they open, but if you go later in the evening, you won't need to wait as long.

Japanese yakitori--essentially, grilled meat on a skewer--at its finest. Don't miss the kamameshi rice. Great selection of sake, beer, and sochu. We like to sit at the bar. The place is small and can fill up fast. Call ahead of time for seats, or be prepared to wait awhile.

Excellent Japanese ramen right in the neighborhood. We go here for their Kotteri tonkatsu ramen, which has a black garlic base. Shio ramen (chicken soup base) is also available. You can order their ramen at various levels of spicy. If you're feeling adventurous, try the Hot Mess Kotteri, which is topped with parmesan cheese. Sounds odd, but it works.

Open until midnight most nights (or until 1am on Friday and Saturday), come here to satisfy cravings for Vietnamese food. There is a large menu to choose from, but we go for their pho and summer rolls. Parking at this shopping center can be a headache, but it's much easier if you come later in the evening.

Amazing neighborhood spot for a boozy brunch. Try the mochiko chicken and waffles or the pork belly benedict. There is a variety of handcrafted cocktails and mocktails. The restaurant is quite cozy, but there is some outdoor seating. It's best to come early before the crowd.
