Agreed, with many people trekking to Forbidden Island, it good to keep this thread up-to-date.

I will, though, humbly disagree with you on many places.

The best breakfast place is The Hob Nob (at 1313 Park St), especially for weekend brunch, when they have all-you-can-drink Mimosas and a Bloody Mary Bar.

Sushi House has gone down hill in the last few years. Kamakura (at 2549 Santa Clara Ave) and Angelfish (at 883 C-2 Island Drive -in the Harbor Bay Landing Shopping Center over on Bay Farm Island) are better for Japanese. Also on the Asian front (and vegetarian, if you're into that) is Central Vegetarian (at 1613 Park St.)

Hinn Tha Bistro (at 1345 Park St) is great, but it's been a while since I've been in, so I don't know if it's still as booming as it used to be (hands down, best friggin' garlic noodles).

For a nicer, more upscale dining experience, I can wholeheartedly suggest three places:
BarCeluna (at 2319 Santa Clara Ave.)
Asena (at 2508 Santa Clara Ave)
and Pappo (at 2320 Central Ave.)
