Azalea is the definitive fine dining spot downtown, offering an intriguing menu and formal yet open atmosphere. Take in the high ceilings and view of the kitchen, or ask for a table in the more intimate upstairs area, to enjoy a full meal. But don't be afraid to stop in when you just need a seat by the bar to grab an appetizer or dessert with a drink.
