Fodor's Expert Review Tazza

$ Downtown Café

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

Skip the bland buffet at your hotel and head to this great, light-filled space where the real coffee drinkers congregate. They come for Tazza's robust house blend brewed mad-scientist-style with siphon pots that boil water heated by halogen lamps. The result is a cup of joe without bitterness or acidity. You can also opt to get your brew hand poured over coffee grounds directly into your cup. The unique brunch menu combines lunch fare like grilled pizza and Angus bacon burgers with a variety of sweet and savory breakfast options like beignets and shrimp-and-cheddar grits. Plan to return for weeknight raw bar specials, great cocktails, and the adventurous dinner menu featuring local lamb loin and Rhode Island striped bass.

Tazza sponsors free outdoor movies in the lot next door on Thursday, June through October.
