Typically a wait to get in, but well worth it. My mouth is watering just thinking about their curry.

Nationally recognized pizza. And who doesn't love a good pie? Get here early, or prepare to wait. If waiting, they have a bar next door, and, yes, it's worth the wait.

My wife loves cheeseburgers and Matt's has a great one. They've also got excellent breakfast choices, hence the name. Typically pretty busy, but they get you in quickly.

Ingo's may be the best burger in the Valley, and they are across the street from La Grande Orange, a small grocer with excellent wine and bread and cheese selections so you can bring something back to your room once you've finished your burger. Be sure to grab a free cookie (or two) as you leave Ingo's!

Another great breakfast spot. They're a little closer than Snooze, and generally quicker to get a seat at.

Cheap drinks and classic arcade games. Fun. And, you can feel old for the first time! At least that's what happened to me. My wife and I are in our forties and went out at an adult time, 8PM, and left at an adult time, 11PM. Meanwhile, a massive line of college kids were waiting for us old people to make room for them.

The Biltmore is a beautiful property that has hosted many of our Presidents. The grounds are nice to walk and you can sit by the pool and have a drink. Here you can have a casual breakfast, lunch or dinner, or a fine dining experience if you prefer. Surrounding the resort are some impressive properties that are enjoyable to walk or bike or drive past, some of which are supposed to be owned by famous people (assuming you care). I definitely recommend checking it out.

My wife and I are typically not into taking tours, but this one was worth it. This Frank Lloyd Wright property is beautiful and what you learn about it and its architect are interesting.
