The Grit is my all time favorite restaurant. I don't know what I would do without their brunch menu. This is an all vegetarian restaurant with world famous tofu. They sell a great cookbook too!

Ted's offers awesome pizza selections, salads, and sandwiches (my favorite is the veggie ciabatta!). Make sure to ask for garlic knots. They aren't on the menu but are super delicious!

Another great burrito stop. This place is cheap, has beer, and is like a souped up taco bell. They have tofu though if you're vegetarian! It's sort of a place you learn to love or hate! I love it!
