(From March 2011) Tucked inside the Godbold Center, an upscale art gallery with mysterious, winding hallways and cozy, romantic nooks, this hideaway offers varied selections for lunch and dinner and a brunch menu that will dress up any Sunday morning. Choices on the latter range from eggs Benedict (à la Pacific, on crab cakes) to a fried egg sandwich with a European spin (on ciabatta with creamy aioli and feta). As always, there are comforting local creations: a migas omelet, a breakfast relleno, and Southwestern crepes. Bar.

(From January 2012)

Mesquites is the ultimate dive: all moody with beer signs, junkyard antiques, and hefty wooden tables. Don’t hit this joint anywhere near a weekend, and pack some patience the rest of the time, because service is leisurely. Rewards, however, are ample. Our group started with the mouthwatering brisket taco, fashioned from just a simple tortilla, meat, and cheese. Then we jumped on the brisket sandwich and the green-chile cheeseburger; the chiles gave the burger a surprising kick, more sweet than spicy, and the accompanying fries were thick and hand-cut. Bar.
