Nearby Eats

These are some of my favorite spots to eat that are within walking distance.
Monsoon is the best restaurant in the neighborhood. Don’t miss their dim sum brunch on the weekend. My favorite dish is the wokked wheat noodles. If you are a Tequila cocktail fan, order the Sayulita.

This place is a bit of a walk. I would recommend walking down, but taking an Uber to get home. The cocktails and wood-fire dishes are 💯. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a great brunch on the weekends.
