My Favorite Restaurants
The restaurants listed are some of my favorites but there are many options for what ever you are craving.
They range is price and cuisine.
Many of them have gluten free options and are willing to accomodate many food allergies.
In the summer it is a great place to sit outside and sip coffee in the morning or to meet friends for a cocktail and dinner.
