Food Scene
Brand new major renovation and enlarged, the food and service are excellent. We have close friends who have traveled and eaten all over the world. When we asked them if the dinners were good they said, "No, they're excellent!." We tried them for ourselves and were convinced.
Breakfast and lunch are served 7 days a week; dinner Tuesday -Sunday. Dinner reservations strongly recommended.

Terrific juice bar. Exercising restraint while shopping there is the problem. Their cordial staff is the icing on the cake. Outdoor dining in the warmer months. And in their upstairs space they offer a full roster of classes including yoga and the like. John and Jane, the husband and wife founders and owners, are as sweet as they come. 18 minutes from here.
