About this Neighborhood

Alexandra punches well above its size on food, with a remarkable 66 restaurants averaging 4.6. Yelp's crowd rates the area 4.7, and the standouts, Fresh Press Coffee Bar, Viva Java, and Ganbei Izakaya, capture the neighborhood's blend of serious coffee and late-night Japanese. Foursquare's regulars map a distinctly Asian food culture: Chinese and Vietnamese kitchens, dessert shops, and bubble tea sit alongside burger joints and grocery stores. Nine coffee shops, six groceries, and five parks fill out daily life. It's a dense, delicious corner where the hard part is choosing where to eat.
