The baba ganoush was the star of the show, even better than the butter chicken. Everything&#39;s made in-house, which is nice.

The Vault offers an exceptional dining experience with its unique and flavorful tapas-style dishes. The blue-fin tuna with tonnato sauce is a standout, showcasing the freshness and quality of the ingredients.

The ambiance of this restaurant is perfect for a special occasion. The owner personally cuts the ribeye at your table, which adds a unique touch to the dining experience. Highly recommend making a reservation as it gets busy!

Bigger than it looks from outside, with a nice back patio. The brown sugar poptart was delicious, and the dark roast coffee was great even black.

The hummus here is so smooth and creamy, it&#39;s honestly some of the best I&#39;ve ever tasted. Just a really lovely texture. The whole place has a nice, relaxed vibe that makes you want to linger.

The counter seating is a fun touch, you can watch them make your food. I ended up chatting with the person next to me. It&#39;s a nice, old-school kind of place that feels like a real neighborhood spot.

Katie was great about my alpha-gal allergy, using a separate fryer. The buffalo chicken sandwich on sourdough was fantastic.

A small, cozy spot with a nice south-of-the-border feel. The food looks really nice on the plate. I appreciated that the server was patient while I decided, made the whole thing feel relaxed.

The volcano roll here was a standout. Really appreciated the fresh ingredients, especially the quality of the avocado and the tuna. It&rsquo;s nice to have a solid sushi option alongside the Chinese dishes. The fish tasted very fresh.

Cozy spot, great for families. The lanterns and tapestries are beautiful. The live music was a nice touch, felt authentic. My only note is that the wine list is a bit limited&mdash;would love to see more local options to pair with the hearty dishes. Still, a pleasant evening.

The tofu pho broth is so rich and flavorful. The whole place just has a really nice, relaxed vibe.

The museum staff suggested this place and it was a solid pick. The Drunken Noodles with tofu were really tasty.

They let us bring our dog to the patio, which was perfect. Our pup got a water bowl and seemed really relaxed. We could enjoy our lunch without any hassle. Just a nice, easy meal.

Stephanie&rsquo;s wine suggestion was just right.

Been coming here for years, and the chicken and cashews is my go-to. Michael remembered my usual order and suggested a nice Riesling that cut through the sauce perfectly. That kind of attention makes a difference.

Came for a casual dinner and had the Asian Wrap with Shrimp. It was really tasty. The Dirty Harry sandwich my friend ordered looked great too. I appreciated that the wine list had a few interesting, lighter options by the glass that paired well with the food. Solid spot for a low-key night.

This is a solid spot for a quick lunch. The slices are huge, so one is plenty. It&#39;s nice to be in and out in just a few minutes. The pizza is pretty good, though the crust could be a bit crispier.

Been coming here for years. The crab cakes are the real deal, all crab meat, no filler. Always get them with the asparagus and risotto. It&#39;s my go-to order.

Server knew the wine list inside out. Suggested a glass that went perfectly with my steak. Didn&#39;t rush us at all. That&#39;s what I look for.
