Food Scene
Win Son
159 Graham AveHip place serving Taiwanese food that is creative and delicious.
This is my go-to in the neighborhood for everything. Brunch, lunch, drinks, late night food, everything. Their brunch is awesome, their steak sandwich is even better, drinks are good, and the music is great. Also check out Featherweight, which is a speakeasy cocktail bar, in the back of Sweet Science.

Along with Sweet Science, my favorite place in the neighborhood. Cheap beer and shot deals and good cocktails (margaritas especially). They have a good happy hour and on the weekends their DJ is great.
