    I met an old roommate for brunch who was visiting from the Bay Area. It's easy to get here. Parking in the lots on weekends is about $3-$5. Street parking is $4/hr - so don't bother.

    If you ever get the asparagus and poached eggs, beware: the sauce that comes on the side is not balsamic vinaigrette. It's some weird fish sauce with chunks of sardines.

    pizzas are good, not too bready like Mozza, not ethereal like Madeo or Angelini, but better than Terroni and the like; friendly staff, place is packed but a solid stop for anyone downtown
