I would second compass rose. I think it qualifies as “cool” and has good food.

Maydan might qualify as “cool”, but I’ve never really enjoyed a meal there. It’s ok, but something like Supra has way better food.


I would agree with these - would also add in Maricosa's in Shaw and an oldie but still good - Estadio in Logan. I love Nina May too.

Not sure how that happened. Wrong thread but while you are waiting for your dinner guest, this is an author suggestion.

Same PP - since you said Georgetown, I’ll also suggest Lutece.
