It doesn't really matter what you're craving: the food here is fantastic, from the hot dogs and burgers all the way up to the striped bass. The fresh market sides (incredible vegetables) are insane!

If you're on a budget, this is the best meal option in the area. I ordered pork dumplings, spicy cucumber salad and a scallion pancake sandwich with duck...and broke a $5 bill. Good food.
