Food Scene
This gastropub offers relaxing and inviting atmosphere with low lights, dark walls and background music. Great choice if you want to talk over the drink along with some nice food options. Our favorites are:
- kimchi pork belly;
- lamb meatballs and hummus;
- Pear gorgonzola flat bread;
- blasted broccoli;
- lamb shank.
PS We didn't like their seafood choices like seven spice shrimp, octopus, ceviche, and oysters.

This middle eastern restaurant is right across from our condo. It has authentic atmosphere and even belly dancers at night. The staff is very friendly and food is great. We ordered the hummus and Ouzi dish (w/ lamb and a salad), different kinds of chicken (garlic lemon chicken). Everything was very flavorful and delicious. Their walnut baklava and turkish coffee is a perfect way to finish your lunch or dinner.

It's a good place for brunch. A lot of people like hanging out there at the bar to watch the Hawks games with bartender. Their eggs benny and garlic smashed potatoes is pretty good.

Awesome place for dinner or happy hour. It is right on the water in the hotel where Beatles used to stay. You can find a picture of them fishing right from their room. Beautiful views, great happy hour in the bar (try truffle fries).

Great place for brunch. We like the high ceilings, concrete walls, and pictures. Eggs Benedicts were amazing. Their prices are very fair for the quality of food.

Drinks & Nightlife
It is a usual American bar, nothing fancy. It has diverse crowd and reasonable prices for happy hour. Stop by at Kushi Bar or Wasabi Bistro for a dinner, and then have a drink at Amber.
