Doesn't look like much, but they're really great and friendly. Skip the fried rice, but order anything else on the menu. Shrimp egg rolls and volcano soup are my favorite. Open on the weekends.

Bring some carrots and a camera with you to feed the wild prairie dogs. They're adorable. I would say "don't feed the wildlife," but if you do, try not to give them junk food.

This is where I go to see movies any time I can. It is $6 for 2 new release films, and the 50's style cafe is pretty nice (with prices that don't destroy your wallet).
