Food Scene

Wine/beer shop with a (rather hidden, and awesome) tasting room underground that serves light food and great beer/wine flights. A nice place to grab a nice bottle of wine or relax after a long day.

Modern and very creative cuisine using local farmers market ingredients. Fantastic brunch menu Sat & Sun, and open for dinner daily except Monday. Be sure to try the house-cured bacon, it's amazing.

Fantastic hole-in-the-wall with massive sub sandwiches, and pizza. The type of place local police, firefighters, EMTs, etc. frequent, so you know it's good! I suggest The Italian. Open 10a-9p daily.

Upscale grocery store with a great selection of fancier foods and lots of hard-to-find items. Large selection of both fresh and frozen pre-made meals. Not quite full supermarket in my opinion.

Full service supermarket a little over a mile away. Basically the same as Vons, Safeway, etc. I suggest the Gelson's Market on Hyperion though, it's closer and better quality, little more expensive.

Local bar with good mix of dive and class. Haven't tried the food but apparently it's good. Pretty noisy, and more standing type of place. A good place to hang out with a group. Open daily 11a-2p.
