Meso MayaA celebration of Mexican and Mayan food, techniques, and methods, Meso Maya prides itself on its extensive menu of made-from-scratch salsas, adobos, sauces, and entrees. The restaurant even makes their own hand-ground tortillas for a truly authentic dining experience. Meso Maya has it all, including enchiladas, tacos, entrees, and Aztec meat pies. The menu also features house specialties such as the Mole Poblano enchilada or the Herradura Salmon. Make sure to check out the drink menu, which lists award-winning tequilas and unique margaritas.

Nonna Founded in 2006 with the intention of providing authentically made regional Italian food, Nonna features seasonal cuisine that is sourced from local producers of meat and produce whenever possible. A beautiful wood burning oven is the focal point of the restaurant and the cuisine focuses on artisanal salumis (salamis), pastas, and pizza. One aspect that makes Nonna truly unique is its menu, as it changes nightly based on what is available from their local producers, making it a perfect option if you and Dad are feeling spontaneous.
