Bittersweet

In a neighborhood better known for convenience stores and takeout Chinese, Greek and Thai, chef Olav Peterson and his wife, Melissa Severson, have carved out a reputation for avant-garde cuisine with an eye toward seasonality. Since it opened in 2011, Bittersweet has never been pretentious or unapproachable; instead, its offerings delight with discovery while remaining grounded in familiar flavors.

Jubilee Restaurant

Very good food. Come hungry because portion sizes are pretty big. If you like wings you need to come on wing nights. The wings were good size and very flavorful.

Dunkin’

Love this Dunkin! It is my favorite in the area. I will drive out of my way to go here. Effort Dunkin is only 5 minutes from my house but I refuse to go to that one anymore because the owner is greedy and sucks.

Amadeo’s Pizza & Deli

Stopped by for a quick bite to eat while in town. Very reasonably priced! The food was delicious and reminded me of home and a former pizza shop which had fresh made sauce and well-done crust! The sub and Stromboli were full of meat. We would visit again! There appears to also be a bakery case, unsure what other goodies they have during the daytime as we visited at night.
