The owner, Jacob, is a friend of ours. His pizzas are so good, as well as most anything on the menu. Brunch is always good here too. Most nights he has something fun happening, live music, poetry night, drag show, you name it. =)

This is a coffee/wine bar and restaurant. We are very good friends with the owners here, Ken and Juan. The brunch here Saturday and Sunday is always really good, and the coffee is incredible. We like to purchase our coffee here. They have a great wine selection as well. They have board games and indoor/outdoor seating. It's cozy and romantic in the evening and fun and hoping during the day.
