My top picks:

Fine: The Pass

An ultimate and unmatched dinning experience the Pass takes you on a journey full of flavor surprising you at every corner with the ingredients both fresh and in house. Locally sourced food could not be better dressed. Opt for the wine pairing and allow your waiter answer any questions you may have. 

Nice Casual: Open to suggestion.

Casual : Paulies

(When I would get bogged down by work I was grabbing take-out from this wonderful Italian delight. Great Alfredo, Paninis especially the Principe and a great oven made pizza.)

Cheap Street: Cali Sandwiches

(Cheap $2.31 great to eat, guilt free and best of all quick. In a pinch gather some change and head here. Unpretentious and hits the spot like nothing else.)
