Great Italian take out dinners as well as subs for the beach. Call early as they often sell out. Our favorites are the Chicken Cacciatore (as long as they still have the 1/2 chicken, be sure to ask!) and the Eggplant Florentine. Wait times can be long so be sure to give your belly ample notice! Their subs are great for lunch as well!

Banana whips! Enough said. Frozen banana pressed into a machine and it turns into a magically creamy cousin of ice cream - but completely healthy! Top it with peanut butter chips or the all-fruit hot fudge! Great place for vegan and vegetarian eats.
