"Johnny's Favorite" Crepe is absolutely amazing. Ask them to top it with their Creme Brulee! Everything is made from scratch there including the chocolate fudge. It will taste like heaven in your mouth.

They have good vegan options and those who are health-conscious and into wellness. But Green Bar & Kitchen is my fave for vegetarian dishes.

They also serve food but I would recommend it more for breakfast. It is also located in a very cool hidden gem spot called "The Yard" that has a nice environment and cute artsy decor. "Voo la VOo Cafe" is located right next door and there is some cute shopping. This spot is up and coming! Not many people have discovered it yet. It's too good of a secret to keep to myself.

Fantastic and great ambience. Beautiful decor, hip, Italian scene for happy hours, brunch and dinner. Definitely make reservations if you plan to go. It is on the pricer side but definitely worth it. Beautiful garden where you can eat, front deck or inside provides you with many options. I usually walk there instead of drive because I always end up eating way too much there and need to walk it off! 15-20 minute walk.

This is located in the Hilton Hotel and is one of my favorite places if I am going to go for fine dining as it offers a tapa style menu. Drinks are great and the view isn't so bad being located right on the beach. ;)

$5 Burger Mondays served with fries anyone? Be in store for a long wait if you go on Mondays without a RSVP. They have the best sweet potato fries! Great selection of draft beers, fantastic music, always a crowd full of locals and internationals. It is a cool, rustic and hip restaurant with an open bar. Outdoor and indoor seating. On Sundays, unlimited mimosas I believe.

This is a local favorite, reasonable priced, place for good old southern ribs! It's quite small and they do have seating but some people just get "take-out".

I don't go to bars often but I love this place because it is a speakeasy joint with a mix of 1940s electroswing, electronica etc...depending on what night. They usually have thematic nights and a very tasteful Forties inspired burlesque show. Beautifully decorated, pool table on the second floor along with a gorgeous VIP library.
