Food scene

About a 5 minute walk. Amazing Italian food. I recommend sitting inside the restaurant, the covered outdoor seating area can be a bit loud.

Traveler advice

Getting around

Public Transportation

Uber and Lyft are always available. I don’t recommend the scooters - many people are injured on them, there are bikes and electric bikes to rent via smartphone all over town. In front of Scopa Restaurant on Washington Blvd, there is a bike rental station provided by the city.
