Phoenicia Diner

$ Fodor's Choice
With its classic diner decor—swivel stools at the counter, cozy booths, and signs with little plastic letters announcing the specials—and gussied-up comfort food favorites, this popular diner always ends up on visitors' (and locals') best-of lists. Popular dishes include the duck and grits skillet, the trout with scrambled eggs, the house-cured corned beef hash, and the fried chicken and waffle sandwich. Get here early, as tables are hard to come by and it closes just before dinner.

Sweet Sue's

$

French doors open into a bright, airy space filled with white wooden booths, marble-top café tables, and a stainless-steel counter where trays of fresh muffins cool. You'll see why it's a local favorite when you tuck into the Blue Monkey, a stack of blueberry-banana buttermilk pancakes, or the savory huevos rancheros and experience the efficient, friendly service. Take a note from the locals—who come armed with newspapers and books—and grab a seat outside under the colorful umbrellas. Note that Sweet Sue's is a cash-only eatery.
