Nobody mentioned wildwood pizza but that place is legit. The plain Jane pepperoni pizza is probably my favorite. Wood fired oven with awesome local sourced salads.

Poppa ts as mentioned earlier is good eats but I hope you are not in a rush because you will be there for a while.

Caros off Jackson is authentic Mexican food. Great tacos al pastor. Their pico is to die for.

Noodles and grill is IMO the best pho in town. It also has some great pad Thai and misc viet and Asian dishes. Cool owner too.

Not really a bar and grill. But Embers is down there and has a bar and some pretty good food For lunch one block away is Sentry drug. It is a diner. It’s a cool diner. If dinner Diamond Grill has a good bar area upstairs. Probably pretty slow on a weeknight


Thanks for the information.

Funny because both Wildwood Pizza and Spirits are owned by the same person, Lee Gwinn. Lee is the man.

The beast and the quan one are legit.

Pappa T's is really slow.

The combo of being hungry and smart usually does it.

I’ve had several of their pizzas and have never been disappointed. Another one is the bacon chicken ranch pizza with the Alfredo sauce. That one is top tier also.

I thought Perkins son ran Wildwood, I just assumed that it was a partnership.

Revamped menu started today. I hope to go by soon to check it out.


Cool. Report back, please!
So far, I've only had a chance to get two of the new items. The Philly Cheesesteak Eggrolls are just ok. I may try again to see if maybe that particular batch was below average.

The Steak n Mushroom Pappardelle was fantastic. I neither know how to say Pappardelle, nor know what it means.
