Food Scene

Trendy, but casual Asian-inspired restaurant that doesn't break the bank. Delicious lamb ribs, Thai ceviche, crispy duck salad and more! Best tips are 1. Try the lamb ribs and 2. Arrive early and expect to wait at least 30 minutes (but definitely worth it).

24/7 takeaway from the guys who run Spring Street Grocer. The burger will blow your mind, and the Diners Club sandwich on Sundays are something special. But (weirdly for a butcher) they are also vegan friendly - their vegan salad and crispy tofu rolls (among other vegan options) are excellent.

Modern Japanese by the same guys who do Chin Chin. We had the tasting menu, and it blew our minds! A bit pricey but perfect for a birthday or anniversary dinner. Definitely book ahead of time.
