If you are looking something more "foody" and "date night" worthy definitely check out Frances. Best if you go early or late, just don't go at eight. OpenTable is a great way to get a reservation.

Iza is my newest favorite in the neighborhood. From fried chicken to the best bowl of noodle soup I've ever had this place is a must go. It's especially good if you go at 9pm because the wait is less.

Great fish, good sushi but my favorite thing is anything from the specials menu, the fresh tofu and the strawberry moji for dessert. If you call at 5pm you can sometimes get a same night reservation.
