I normally don't like paying this much for Peruvian food, but hey, everything was good so I can't complain.

This place is not so new now and it's settled down to just another cafe. But hey, free wi-fi!

    Formerly Cafe Mono. I've never been to the old cafe, but I love Cafe Euro. The guy working at the counter is really friendly. Coffee, tea, cookies, other pastries, etc. The best part? It's spacious, has couches with coffee tables, single desks for people to work on, regular tables with chairs, outlets all over the place, and the best part - FREE wifi!!!

    They are running a test and closes at 11pm on the weekends. I hope it stays that way. There aren't enough cafes open and offering free wifi late at night.

The original froyo spot before the hype and at a fraction of the price of its competitors. No froyo holes here either.

I used to come to this restaurant as a kid after elementary school for a slice of pizza. The mom and pop who ran this joint were so friendly. Now, they're gone and have been replaced with a new family. Thankfully, though times have changed, friendly neighborhood hospitality hasn't.

The restaurant changed from Greek to Italian cuisine, but the one thing they have in common is that they still serve pizza. I had The Mexican pizza last night - a little spicy with chorizo - and loved it. Their chipotle sauce (daily special) with their linguini was really good too. Be careful - portions are huge so you may want to share.

I can't wait for them to start serving breakfast again. I'm craving for chilaquiles.

Good, but worth it? They seem a bit stingy - they actually weigh your yogurt and count your toppings so that you get exactly what you pay for. Nothing more, nothing less. My friend and I both found holes in our yogurt, but I guess that doesn't matter since they weigh it. At least they have lychee which is rare in most froyo places.

The whole block on Irving St. is filled with great restaurants, yet they all serve different things. Here, we have food that gives you feel like you're at home ... a Japanese home, that is.

That nan ban chicken (with a mild tartar sauce) was fried so good! Tofu burger - also a winner. Everything is good. Even the complimentary stuff (not really complimentary but more like the stuff that automatically comes with your set meal) is good, even the salad.

You can also buy Japanese knick-knacks.

I came here for Dine About Town. I was impressed. The salad, the farro, the short rib, the grapefruit tart with a piece of chocolate with Pop Rocks baked into it (brings back memories!) - I couldn't find a problem with anything. Even more, service is great here, even though I came in wearing my "Califartnia" tshirt. Portions are a bit small but a three-course meal is exactly enough to satisfy you. Remember, you're here to enjoy your meal, not get fat.

Really good but really little. I don't know if you'd want to fork out a lot for a little. I paid $4.60 for a small with two toppings and felt cheated because 1) I didn't know I could have paid a few cents more for a third topping, partially my fault for not reading the menu in full, and 2) they were really skimpy on the yogurt. I dug my spoon through the yogurt and found a hole in the middle. Why couldn't they just fill my whole cup up? So shady ... yet so good!
