Fantastic French restaurant, great for dinners and breakfasts. Very popular for brunch on weekends (up to an hour wait -- the house is so close that you can put your name in, and come back later).

This is an old-fashioned, 1950s soda shop style Ice Cream bar. They make their own ice cream flavors (it's amazing what they recreate as ice cream) and their own sodas from scratch.
