The Orient Thai Cafe

Breakfast spot (they also have lunch). This place is an institution. Cheap and good with heaping portions. I recommend the big breakfast 1 or 2. You'll have to get here early if you don't want to wait in line. If it's nice, sit outside across the boardwalk (there is hidden seating attached to the pier)... oh, and they only take cash

El Paisa

Probably my favorite place to get burritos, not because of the size or price, but because the quality of ingredients

Zen 5
1130 Garnet AveGood sushi within walking distance
Gourmet sushi. This place takes sushi to the next level. Not only is the quality of the fish superb, but the combinations of flavors are truly amazing; the definition of gourmet. If you want traditional sushi (just a combination of raw fish, rice, etc) then this is not the place. If you want to experience what it means to pair and combine flavors to create complex tastes, then this is your place. It's a bit on the pricey side, but worth every penny.
some favorite rolls:
Bomb James Bomb
Rastatori (no longer on the menu, but they will make it for you)
Orange Crush

Drinks & Nightlife
Good atmosphere with a nice outdoor section. Also has quality food. A good mix of young and young adults.
A busy bar at night but a respectable restaurant during the day. Quality wise, the food is a couple notches above bar quality, I would even describe a couple of the entrees as being very good.

Great place if you like beer. You can pour your own beer and pay by the oz. Great place to beer taste.
