This is one of our go-to places for happy hour. Happy hour is daily 3-6pm. House Wine $4, Well Drinks $5, 12" pizza $11.99. Drinks are great! This is a really nice Italian restaurant with good food, but we mostly show up at the bar during happy hour. :)

Food Scene
This is a coastal mexican restaurant. Great food!! Casual atmosphere. My favorite is the chicken quesadilla, Baha style. My husband's favorite is shrimp nachos, Chipotle style. The chips are the best in town.
They also just opened the Cantina at Burrito del Sol which is a really cool bar that joins the restaurant.

Some of the best pizza in the area! It's at McGuire's Irish Pub but over to the side. The pub is always crowded, but the hidden pizza place usually isn't. Most people don't know it's there. We love it! And good drinks too!
