Pizza Del Perro Negro Roma
Rock n roll pizza joint with mismatched seating, a large oven - and a stage. Thursday night's features a live rock band. Stop by for some local flavor and a delicious pie featuring the house specialty - Black Dog's 21 ingredient secret sauce.

coffee
La Finca Santa Veracruz
Cozy cafe that sources coffee from small farmers in Mexico. Featuring medium and finely roasted beans paired with a small selection of pastries. Lovely spot for a mid-day snack and a good book.
