At Sally Tomatoes, which sits about two miles away from Crossbrook, dinner is only part of the equation. The restaurant also hosts live comedy shows on the first and third Tuesday of every month, free when you dine here, so you can expect to be joined by a crowd on these special nights.

The extra entertainment doesn't mean that Sally Tomatoes' food is an afterthought, though. To the contrary, chefs here use fresh ingredients from local farmers and purveyors to build high quality eats. Dig into apps like sweet potato fries with curried lime sauce or buffalo wings with hot sauce and bleu cheese dressing, but save room for a juicy burger or plate of pasta. The Cajun chicken pasta promises some heat, whereas the mushroom Swiss burger is mild and topped with button mushrooms plus a sauteed portobello.
