  Insider tip: Get the tempeh sandwich. It's crunchy, sweet and peppery, the tempeh sandwich, layered with roasted red pepper, arugula and smoky tempeh (a fermented, firm protein derived from soy).

  Order the shrimp and grits when you finally snag a table here. The shrimp are sauteed with asparagus, roasted corn, and tomatoes in a Cajun cream sauce alongside a basil grits cake.

  Busboys is one of the few places in the city that has late-night wifi plus a good selection of beer and food. Try the Poet pizza! Delicious!
