Great for takeout (small restaurant). Good portions, every dish is amazing. Recommend Tofu Garlic Noodle for kids. Our favorites are Beef Udon and Salmon curry. Terrific spot and very close to house!

The best deep dish pizza (they also have thin crust). Try the iconic spinach and mushroom, or order our family favorite...pineapple, jalapeño and pepperoni. We call it the Jalapapapple. LOL. Allow 45 mins. Great for takeout.

Sunday mornings, follow the walkers and bikers from FROG park, along a nice path that follows a creek and end at the DMV parking lot for a wonderful Farmer's market. Kids play in the creek. Good place to buy breakfast or lunch!
