An awesome mom and pop shop. Great food, good prices, always friendly service. Great spot to come pop in for lunch if ure in the area! Their pastas are always good and their asian dishes are also delicious! Protip parking can be tough eight outside so you might want to park nearby and walk over.
Food presentation not the best, but I am a huge fan of hole-in-the-wall, family-run establishments. Items are about $9 each.

cash only, of course.
If there was an unofficial cafeteria for my work lotus eaters would probably be it. My co-workers have been going here for years and I visit once or twice a year.
