Great Italian food with handmade pasta. Would suggest making reservations in advance, but they do have a few seats at the bar. Great wine selection.

Eastern Market main is open 9:00am-5:00pm Tues-Friday and Sat-Sun there is an excellent street market with a great food section. Highly recommend grabbing breakfast (blueberry buckwheat pancakes) from the restaurant inside Eastern Market. Taste some of the best homemade Philippine food at the outdoor food fair during the weekend.

Love their full stacked bagels. Try the reuben and whitefish. Small place though, so I'd take it to go and sit somewhere else to eat. We usually bring it home since we're so close.

One Michelin star! Amazing food, but people start lining up at 3:30pm to get reservations. Would suggest using TaskRabbit to get a lineholder or else try anyways and just wait it out at a nearby pub.
