Naked Finn

The historic Gillman Barracks is no longer the military base it used to be, but the folks at Naked Finn clearly didn’t get the memo because their food has some serious firepower. (Yes, that is indeed our best attempt at military humor.) Place your trust in their well-informed waitstaff and you’ll get rewarded with things like a pancake made from squid, littleneck clams with white wine and fish sauce, and rice noodles with sakura shrimp. Even though the restaurant sits on old barracks, the space actually looks more like a greenhouse now. After your meal, explore the surrounding arts district—go gallery hopping, stop for waffles and ice cream at Creamier, or drink some Wonka-esque cocktails at Hopscotch.
