Westlake Plaza is pretty cute! I really like the selection of things they have here, especially…read moresince West Davis is so far from all the downtown Davis goodness. Not only is there the Westlake Market for your weekly groceries, but they also have beauty salons, a number of eateries, *~MANDRO~*, and a bunch more. I believe that Lamppost Pizza, Shanghai Town, and Chuy's Tacqueria are here, so you have a decent selection of places to drop by for a meal. My favorite boba place, Mandro Teahouse, is also here! The other businesses nearby, like Abba Salon and Mattress Express, I don't frequent much nor do most college students, so I can only imagine that mostly locals go there. I also go to Family Dollar quite often for my cheapo college student needs LOL. Still cool to have so much variety in such a small plaza, though :) Really accessible-- there are two bus stops that are on each side of the plaza, one near Family Dollar on Arlington and the other across the parking lot on Lake. I bus or walk here from my apartment from time to time to get groceries or study at Mandro. For the apartments in West, I think this little plaza is super convenient and useful. Every once in a while, they have a small food truck festival in the parking lot that features local eats. I'm not too sure of the exact dates but there is one during Picnic Day which gets pretty popular! It's awesome that they have little things that build and engage the community.

Never heard of em, but Bruxie is taking over where Burger Patch failed. Shabu Shack is going in next to Mikuni's too. Even though I walk through it every once in a while with the dog it's okay because half of the places are vacant and the other half aren't open when I'm passing by.

Well, there's a Mountain Mike's here, and...uh...there's a Mountain Mike's here. I guess Dos is here too. It's pretty dead and I don't see it getting much better.

It's a parking lot with stores in between streets. Woo hoo!…read more DavisWiki says: E Street Plaza sits across E Street from Peet's Coffee and Tea and Bizarro World. The plaza was created in 2000 by replacing a parking lot with an attractive plaza. It is bordered by Baskin Robbins, Yeti Restaurant, and RC iPhone Repair. It includes a performing area and benches for relaxing while you eat your ice cream or listen to the music on a summer night. The Davis Downtown Business Association has been organizing a spring/summer music series for a number of years now. A free parking lot was opened in 1966 after demolition of 1900-era homes to make way for a dense, walkable downtown. The lot became metered in 2008. (https://localwiki.org/davis/E_Street_Plaza) Not a huge selection. They have what they have and what you want may not be there. You know, like everywhere. It's a stretch to consider value when shopping here. Difficult to shop around. They have what they have... Service? Well they have a burrito place now? No more crêpe joint. Maybe grab an ice cream cone and sit around on a warm evening.
