Craving sushi or ramen while shopping? Slurping Turtle is the perfect place! Make it a fun date night and combine it with a few rounds of duck pin bowling a few steps away at Pins Mechanical!

Winter time calls for soup weather. And what is better than a big bowl of Pho? They also package their to go/delivery orders great for those days you are feeling under the weather.

Similar concept to chipotle (build your own lines) but with Mediterranean style food. Also SO much better quality.

Jeni's originated in Columbus so while in town you have to stop in for a scoop. There are several locations around town but the Easton spot is nice so you can eat and shop!

A possible hidden gem at Easton is the Nordstrom cafe. Located on their second floor is a restaurant. Perfect for a lunch or dinner. My favorite: the skinny fries with olive aioli dip!
