Foo (I ate the braised beef shortribs with broccoli there, very nice; you get your meal in a box).

Pho Vuong (another good meal - I had the pho - but I mostly remember the visit because I forgot my umbrella there and had to make a trip back to get it)

Pig (love their fried chicken and beef brisket sandwich)

Puerto Vallarta Amigos (it's a food truck, and the food looks good and the folks running it are very friendly; but I was too full from eating at Pig when I wandered by)

Dutch Bakery (I had a tasty, but a little drippy, hamburger there a few weeks ago, plus bottomless ice tea; the old-time decor is one of the reasons I go)

Ayo Eat at Market Square (planning to go)

Side Dish Restaurant (enjoyed one of their Persian combos)

Shizen Sushi (planning to go)

Devour (planning to go)

Aegean Cafe (planning to go)
