Food Scene
The Five Spot is my favorite, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Every day the featured menu item changes, but the ingredients are always fresh. You HAVE to try the jam.
Pro-tip: There is always a wait, but it's so worth it.

The beauty of Pizza People is that it's kind of a hidden gem. It's a little too far north for most downtowners so you get to enjoy a more quiet setting and there is never a wait. Enjoy watching the lightrail and order any kind of mac n cheese or the testostoroni pizza!
