Perahps the best value for the $$$ in Brentwood. It can get crowded with the laptop set (of which I am one), and the parking is inadequate. It closes early for this kind of hangout (midnight on Fri-Sat, 11 pm weekdays).
Favorites: rosemary risotto with chicken, espresso
Pros: Great value, Rosemary risotto, Espresso
Cons: Inadequate parking, Gets crowded, Closes early
