Jackson-Fillmore - Authentic local neighborhood Italian restaurant. Every table is sharing stories over an affordable bottle of wine, and they usually don't rush you out.

A16 - Central Italian restaurant, has a super hot brick oven. They have an open kitchen surrounded by a chef's counter that they don't take reservations for, so it's usually available for small parties. Good wine and great atmosphere.

House of Prime Rib - Need months of notice to score a reservation but really does have the best prime rib!  This place is the real deal!
