Bistro La Bonne
2436 14th Street NorthwestGreat happy hour deal: mussels, fries, and a beer for $15!
Don't be deterred by the fact that this sandwich shop is inside a gas station: the sandwiches are incredibly good. I particularly recommend the Chivito sandwich and the eggplant fries.

Great place for German beer. There are a lot of rules that keep the vibe mellow: no standing, no talking loud, etc.

This place only has outdoor seating, and it gets pretty crowded. The barbecue is great, and they have a good beer selection too.
