Great house nut milk latte. Amazing gluten-free and paleo pastries that do not sacrifice taste. Our favorite neighborhood brunch spot. It is off the beaten path, on a quite street and easy to get a table on the weekends.

delicious tacos and fun cocktails in a romantic, but urban and lively outdoor setting. This spot is popular and does not take reservations, so get there early (at 5 when they open), put your name on the list and head to the bar area for a fresh margarita while you wait for a table.
