This cozy restaurant features a handsome, dark wooden bar and a high ceiling that gives it the feel of yesteryear. If you are a fan of the teeming-with-New-Orleans-goodness muffaletta sandwich (or interested in trying one), Cobblestones is a must. The roast beef and cheese muffaletta with giardiniera is so good it will have you talking about it for days…even to yourself. The sausage and peppers meal is always strong, and make sure you gobble up plenty of hot bread sticks as you await your meal. Snatch a bowl of chicken gumbo whenever it's offered, and if you see the crawfish tails in creole sauce on the special's sheet, go for it. It's outstanding.

Average cost: <$10
