Food Scene

Good brunch (if Patisserie Amie is full); good for dinner, too. Not the absolutely best in TC, but pretty darn good and often less busy than the other hot spots. Outdoor seating in the summer.

Amazing homemade food. Pastrami sandwich is not to be missed (even if you are lukewarm on pastrami). Fantastic homey atmosphere, enticingly grumpy but efficient service. Highly recommended. Coffee is also very good. Not open at night.

My favorite restaurant. Amazing atmosphere, delicious farm to table food. Great cocktails and wine. Highly recommended. Not cheap, but you can eat affordable but filling appetizers and small plates for reasonable prices. Recommended for a drink even if you don't want to spend the dough for dinner.
