This restaurant is in a slightly seedy area but please do not be discouraged. All great things come to those who have adventurous natures. The SAI WOO is the real foody experience: its interior decor design is spectacular. This is a must see. The food is always interesting and changes to the menu keep its' devoted clients coming back. Not expensive. Not ideal for children or large groups.

Extremely rare old fashioned European cake and pastry shop with a little lunch restaurant in behind the bakery counter. The Bon Ton has not changed in 40 years. My Hungarian grandmother used to bring me here for tea and cakes. Go back in time to a bygone - DELICIOUS era. Highly recommended for cakes and pastries that cannot be found anywhere outside Budapest!

Drinks & Nightlife

Unique restaurant well known for night time live entertainment. FLAMENCO music and dance many nights of the week. Patrons must contribute $5 to $10 to the proverbial hat passed around by the dancers. Amateur and expert musicians and dancers appear here. Something of a cult following and very safe, friendly fun local hang out for the locals. Highly recommended for adults.
