Coalition&#39;s happy hour is my go-to for a quick bite. Solid portions, quality ingredients. Cocktails are spot on. It&#39;s quiet in the afternoons, perfect for a solo drink and a small plate. Gets the job done.

Nice view of the river from the rooftop. The outdoor seats were comfy even when it got a bit chilly.

The mocktails here are a real surprise. Got the one with a spicy kick and a hint of sweetness, plus a little caffeine. It&#39;s a clever combo. Not too sweet, which I like.

The portions here are generous for the price. You can tell they put effort into the food, it&#39;s not just slapped together. My main was a solid plate, definitely left full.

Been coming here for years, the banchan spread is still generous. My go-to is the bibimbap, huge portion for the price. Feels like a proper meal, not just a snack.

The portions are huge, which is perfect for sharing with friends. We ordered a bunch of things and still had leftovers. The veggies were super fresh and not oily at all.

The bittersweet cookies are a standout. Texture is spot on - soft but holds together well. Decent variety of other pastries too. Good for a quick coffee stop.

The pho here is a solid deal. Got a big bowl, plus an appetizer and a drink. With tip, it was still under $15. The broth had good depth, and the noodles were just right. Hard to beat for the price.

Love this spot for a casual hang with friends. The owner is super helpful if you&#39;re new here&mdash;makes picking something easy.

The lunch deal is a solid choice. For about $20 with a drink, you get to try a bit of everything. The soft serve machine at the end was a fun little touch.

The takeout always arrives hot and fresh. Parking&#39;s a bit tight at dinner, but the food makes it worth the hassle.

The staff really knows their cheese! They even sliced the cured meat to my exact thickness, which was perfect for our little charcuterie board.

The egg rolls were huge and crispy. I liked how they came out piping hot, just the right way to kick off dinner. The place itself is pretty cozy, with warm lighting and comfy booths.

The red curry with tofu here was solid. What stood out was the amount of veggies in it&mdash;way more than I&#39;ve gotten at other places for the same price. That alone made it feel like a good deal.

Been coming here for years. They&#39;ve always got water bowls out for the dogs, and even sell treats. The walls are covered in photos of local pups, which is a nice touch. Makes the whole place feel like a neighborhood hangout.

Bulgogi and marinated ribs were spot on&mdash;really tender and packed with flavor. The BBQ portions were decent, not huge but enough for a solid meal. Just a heads up, the side dishes were a bit basic today.

Solid spot for a quick business lunch. The family-style seating is efficient for group discussions. Menu has a good variety, and the service was prompt. Prices are reasonable for the area. Convenient location near the office.

Got here right before closing and they were super nice about it. No rush at all. But the real star was the hash browns &mdash; honestly the best I&#39;ve ever had. Crispy and golden all the way through.

The staff is so friendly and patient, which makes dining here a really comfortable experience.

The veggie burger was solid, patty had a nice char. My friend&#39;s mushroom risotto was creamy but could&#39;ve used more seasoning. Staff was friendly, they checked in just enough. Good spot for a casual dinner.

That pimento cheese breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel is a must. The flavors really work. Had it with a strong black coffee, which cut through the richness nicely. A solid start to the day.

Gary&#39;s is a cozy spot with a great ambiance. The combination of elegance and a relaxed vibe makes it perfect for both casual and special occasions.

The staff is so friendly. Our server was really helpful with the menu and made sure they accommodated my dietary restriction. Service was quick and gracious, which is nice when you&#39;re trying to pick a wine to go with your meal.

Leftovers for days! The pho was massive, came with all the fixings. Egg rolls were crispy outside, still moist inside. Chicken stir-fry had a nice sauce, lots of veggies. Staff checked in a few times.

Service was super fast and friendly, which was nice. The hibachi-style meal was solid for the price, and the portions were definitely generous. A good find if you&#39;re not looking for a huge, fancy teppanyaki show.

The gluten-free scones are a nice touch. It&#39;s a cozy, welcoming space, though it does get pretty packed. I just like the vibe here.

The Bentley Roll is my go-to. I like how they give you a little sheet to mark your happy hour choices. It&rsquo;s a nice touch. The space itself is really chill, with a good vibe for just hanging out.
