Favorite little Italian neighborhood restaurant. OpenTable for reservations as it is often very busy and not very large. They just opened a place nextdoor that is much larger but I haven't tried it yet.

Authentic dim sum (expect lines) and Cantonese food. Great for dinner with a group. Make reservations as this small restaurant is often full. Not cheap but worth the great service, tablecloths and clean atmosphere and delicious food. (Dim sum is typically only eaten at lunchtime).

It is definitely not fancy but this place is great if you love spicy food and/or Peking Duck. Be prepared for long lines.

A more upscale version of Safeway but less "organic" than Whole Foods. Has full-service in-house butcher counter if you are particular about your meat and seafood. Convenient parking lot.
