Here follows a partial, alphabetical listing of local eateries. Please note that this is very much a work in process. A mention does not indicate endorsement, nor is the absence of a listing indicative of disapproval. If you have a restuarant you would like me to add, or if you notice inaccuracies, please e-mail me with details. Thank you!
Where listed, the price reflects the average price per person for dinner including one drink and tip. Expect to pay about 25% less for lunch. "Late" means that the establishment continues to serve past 11 pm, "Sunday" that it is also open on Sundays, and "no CC" that credit cards are not accepted. This information is subject to change, so please call the establishment for details. See also the Zagat Survey.
