Food Scene
This is my favorite local place to walk to for dinner because it's so close, the service is always great and I love Italian food. They have outdoor seating and such a beautifully decorated interior it's fun to sit a the bar or grab a table for dinner. They also have bottomless brunch mimosas!

Hands down the best pizza you will get outside of Italy. Sometimes there is a little wait and they don't take reservations but it is SO worth it!
