Common Bond has the BEST CROISSANTS outside of Paris! All their pastries are divine. They have very fine breakfast items and loaves of bread as well. Also, if you're a latte kind of person, go here. If you see a line, it's worth the wait!

Wow, the hash is amazing and if you like an eggy breakfast they have lots of choices. It is a chain, but I still say it has some of the best waffles and pancakes around. There is usually a wait, but you can go on their website to check on the wait time. No reservations. Closes at 2:30pm.

They are known for their brunches so get there early. Usually a wait, but so worth it. They are known for charcuterie and pizzas on the weekend brunch menu. They have a beautiful garden to sit in and wander with a shop next door.

Uchi is a classy Japanese restaurant that specializes in sushi and sashimi offerings. Award-winning chef Tyson Cole, who owns the restaurant, has used innovative experiments with tastes and textures to create dishes that have expanded the horizons of Japanese cuisine in the city. The classy furnishings, dim lighting, and contrast of beige and brown with vivid red oriental wallpaper on one of the walls create an ambiance that is perfect for a special occasion.

Dinner for date night. Maybe a little pricey.
This a James Beard winner so expect the best. It's a rotating concept and right now it's Italian. The atmosphere is very chic and mysterious because it's in an old renovated building.
