Downtown/Crossroads

Empanada Madness: If you get a weekday free for lunch, their lunch special is incredible. Traditional south american food with arepas, empanadas, pastelitos, tequenos (cheese sticks, absolutely incredible). The sauces are incredible.

Parlor KC- Upscale food court basically. Actually a lot cooler than it sounds. Awesome patio, has a bar on both floors, great korean lettuce wraps, also has great chicken at Mother Clucker and a good taco scene (I hear). Also their basement is now a place to party with a DJ and everything on weekends?!

The Mixx: It’s a local chain, but dang do they crush the sandwich and salad game. The salads are legitimate entrees. The Pretzel chicken sando is my go-to.
