There's a kitchen upstairs and the burger is very good (shake shack/burger joint style). And only six bucks.

Date Night Is... an order of pao de queijo (Brazilian Cheesy Bread) and a Caipirinha at one of Beco's outdoor tables. The wait staff is awesome & will put up with your American pronunciations.
Fantastic spot for drinks, and they have a killer brunch menu with some unique dishes. Good windows for people-watching and a little outdoor seating.
One of the best bars in the hood. 400 whiskey options and primo grilled cheese. If its nice out, be sure to sneak out to the beautifully landscaped backyard.

Laid back and affordable dive bar. Try a Frito Pie and an Ice House Burger with Cheese. Beware of their beer/shot combos. Drink and play a game of connect four.
