Tucked away on a side street Downtown, 410 Boyd bubbles with artists and politicos searching for a touch of wamrth and class in a somewhat sketchy neighborhood.

There's a healthy happy hour here after suits knock off work and artists take a breather from their nearby studios; the crowd gets funkier as the suburbanites go home. This is the sort of place to eavesdrop on people discussing the future of the city, and many of the diners here have a hand in shaping it. The fare is pretty standard, but it's hard to go wrong with the gorgonzola burger, Caesar salad or simple fish dishes.
