Streetcar Grille & Tavern
1580 Main StI eat there at least once a week. Great food. If you like flavor but not spiciness, I recommend Huli Huli Chicken, the spam musubi (sounds terrible, but is so delicious they can't keep up with the orders), and a Dole Whip. I promise you'll have plenty of food and you'll be completely satisfying multiple cravings at once.

South Hyde Park
It'swhere you're at.
Hyde Park
3619 Gillham RdIt's very pretentious and not very...how should I say this...multicultural? It's white. Young, pretentious white. But at least everyone down there is fake nice to you. I lived there before moving to Hyde Park and quickly found out these were not my people. But I still made the best out of it and discovered great places to eat, daily events, and normal people lived there too, just keeping to themselves. it's worth checking out if you want to drink overpriced coffee at a roasterie that makes the best tasting ham & cheese croissants. Or eat a 5 course meal (with portions the size of half dollars) that will excite your taste pallets to new heights, but paying $100 per person.
