The Cardinal:
With its painted brick walls and old-school diner furnishings, The Cardinal oozes the intimate feel of a traditional Southern eatery from rafters to floorboards. Ideal for a quick lunch, a weekend brunch or a late-night date, this versatile new spot is set to become a neighborhood fave in no time. Their moderately-priced menu offers date-worthy dinner specials such as the authentic BBQ Plate ($19), a perfect option for two to share (think Lady and the Tramp, but with brisket in your teeth). Wash down your pork and hot links with a locally-brewed beer like the popular Keegan's Mother's Milk ($6) and be sure to keep the volume of your sweet nothings to a minimum—or be prepared to share them with neighboring tables. Trust us…when we said intimate, we meant it.
