Nishi Restaurant
This is a hot spot for a great meal or rousing nightlife, with a bar that is often full of fun lovers, but the dining room is quiet for those who prefer a meal with the family where they can talk. The menu includes a fusion of Caribbean and Asian fare, like New York ribeye steak, seafood alfredo, tuna tartar, miso soup, pan fried red snapper, sushi, and coconut banana bread pudding. There are also warm carafes of sake to wash it all down. The friendly staff will make you feel right at home, and the chef and owner loves to visit with diners.

Elbow Room
This new restaurant is both excellent and fun! The driving concept behind the food is called Stonegrill cooking. Guests order things like Calamari, Prawns, or a beefsteak, and they cook it at the table on their own blazingly hot lava stone grill. This method of cooking is simple and delicious, and it adds no fat to the food. Because of the nature of the lava stone, no lubrication is necessary to keep the food from sticking. This is a fantastic way to have a meal that is both gourmet and healthy. This place is new, but the service is very friendly and knowledgeable, and word is getting out. You will want to make reservations here.
