The food is also really delicious if you’re in the mood for some classic American grub. Catch the game on one of their big screen TVs or listen to live music performed by local, up and coming musicians.

At Prohibition Restaurant and Speakeasy, cocktails aren’t just a drink; making them is a craft and an art. Though the bar isn’t a secret the way many others were during the prohibition era, they play with trends from this debonair era. This creates a luxurious and sophisticated atmosphere, in a contemporary lounge space. Enjoy classic cocktails and dishes such as truffle lobster mac & cheese or shrimp ceviche.

This surf and turf styled restaurant has a delicious menu of tacos, quesadillas, burgers, seafood, and the best wings around.

Watch the game on the TVs at the bar or wash down spicy Buffalo wings with a draft beer. The bar also serves wine and cocktails, many of which are fruity and fit the tropical theme of the restaurant. They also have delicious desserts, take out options, and weekly specials.

The extensive drink menu features classic Italian cocktails, beer, wine, creative house-made cocktails, and even after-drink drinks. Bocce also has a lovely outdoor patio.

This Spanish wine bar has everything you could want: tapas, sangria, and happy hour. The cozy restaurant offers flatbreads, meat and cheese platters, meatballs, and more, yet it’s more about what’s in your glass rather than what’s on our plate.
