This small neighborhood cafe in Buena Vista is the kind of place we go to every time the thought of going to a grocery store and cooking something feels as daunting as free soloing El Capitan. The reliably good food here leans Mediterranean, but they have everything from paninis to salads and even a cheesesteak. There are also a lot of vegetarian options and very good smoothies if you want to keep things kind of healthy. The dining room is about the size of a studio apartment, which makes for a more personal meal good for casual dates or catching up with a friend.
