Oozing hipster-locavore earnestness, this farm-to-table restaurant serves whimsical neo-
Southern creations in an oh-so-cool dining room. Although the service and general vibe
might be a little too cool for school, it's hard to fault the food: fried green tomato
bruschetta and seafood zucchini linguine pair perfectly. No reservations means long waits.
O'Steen's
SEAFOOD
11am-8:30pm Tue-Sat)
Locals claim this seafood shack has the best shrimp on the East Coast, and having eaten
our weight in shrimp, we think they're close to the mark. If you're allergic to shellfish,
don't despair: the tilapia and catfish (broiled or fried) are pretty good too. O'Steen's ain't no
secret, so prepare to wait for a table or plan to take-out and picnic.
Gypsy Cab Co
FUSION
11am-10pm Mon-Fri, from 10:30am Sat & Sun)
Across the bridge from downtown, this arty turquoise-and-purple bistro is a local fave for
an eclectic menu spanning Italian pastas, French strip steaks, Asian tofu and Middle
Eastern hummus platters.
Georgie's Diner
DINER
On the fringe of the historic downtown area, this shiny silver retro-look diner is best for
big breakfasts and hearty Greek meals like gyro, souvlaki and calamari. Service is swift
and smiley, despite the relatively constant stream of hungry patrons.
