Kitsch & very reasonable fresh Greek food. Nice view of the harbor + they have belly dancers sometimes (the sound system is kind of bad--but the dancers are decent). We love the flaming cheese dish!

This is a decent local Italian restaurant that is walkable from the house. We prefer the food at Meridians, but the ambiance is nicer at Spasso. They have a quiet bar in the back which is nice.

Super fun and roomy hipster bar with pub food. This is a historical site, and great place to hang out and listen to some fine rockin' tunes. A favorite with the manic panic and tattooed crowd. Happy hour is 5-8 and food is half off. Half off food all day on Sunday. Great vibe.
