Omakase from the downstairs sushi bar is amazing. Don't leave without trying the hand rolls (go spicy tuna!). I was also digging the salmon-meets-blowtorch sushi. Ask for fresh wasabi too.
So many options!! Roberta's (pizza), Amali Mou (Greek), Seamore's (fish tacos), Ippudo (ramen), Liquiteria (smoothies), Ovenly (cookies), Bangkok Bar (Thai), Korilla BBQ (Korean), Mr Bing (Chinese)...
