The best pizza joint in town is two blocks away. Pets welcome on patio. This local pizza place is really great! People come from 30 miles away for a slice of Lilly's pizza.

My two favorite sushi places are really close to you! Hako is good and fresh. It is in a strip mall so this is not the one to pick if you want to walk around and make this part of your night downtown. If, however, you want some good sushi, I love this place. It is also right next to the closest grocery store.

This place is on Glenwood South so it is in the middle of good nightlife. It also has huge rolls (by one get one) so it is economical. I really like sitting on the bar side or on the patio.

Best desserts ever. Cool vibe. Sit at the U-shaped bar. It is only two blocks away. If there is a wait, put your name on the list and then go across the street to Crafty Beer and have wine or beer there while you wait to be called to dinner.

HIGHLY recommend for brunch but also really great food at every meal. Date night spot. You at least need to visit the shop upstairs. This is a cool place. It used to be a Piggly Wiggly grocery store. My favorite lunch is the spinach burger but on sourdough. Their fish is great. They also have super early bird specials, wine specials, etc.

If you are a foodie, go here. Cool vibe. I like sitting at the bar but anywhere is nice. Make a reservation if you want a table or brag a seat at the bar and meet the locals and chat with the staff.

Huge beer selection. This place is three stories tall and has a huge patio and rooftop. Lots of inside and outside seating. I prefer small, local joints but this is a great spot to meet people or hang with your friends.

Arts & Culture

So, the grounds on the museum are gorgeous. Rolling hills, outdoor sculptures, picnic, dogs on leashes, bikes, sunshine, and more. Oh, and the museum is great, too. Hey, the restaurant is darn good, too (although a bit noisy).

Parks & Nature

This is just a little park but it is a great spot to walk your dog. I walk mine from the house, down to this park, we play in the creek, and walk back home.
