Angela J.Angela Jorden: Skip the Bento Box and go straight for the sushi. Order the Crunch, Spider or Spicy Tuna Rolls and you will never be disappointed. This is the best sushi we've found on the north side.

Angela J.Angela Jorden: Always get the sweet tea! It's the bomb at Maxine's. The chicken at Maxine's is without peer--smothered boneless and bone-in alike. Collard greens like your grandma made and peach butter to die for.

Angela J.Angela Jorden: I've never found better tamales. And the salsa and queso is highly addictive. Everything is made fresh every day, but you better get there early--not everything on the menu is there after noon.
