There are lots of little restaurants on Hillsborough St. by NC State University. This is a good little Indian place. They're prices are a little cheaper than other Indian restaurants in the area, but the food is still good!

This is a really unique bar that just opened down town. You can poor yourself as much beer as you want of each beer and you pay by the ounce. They're constantly changing the taps out too. They have a pretty good sized menu, but the food isn't spectacular.
