This one has to go to Brimmer & Heeltap, a restaurant that actually creates a bona fide “late night” weekend menu, on which one of the choices is “Our Family Meal”—i.e., you eat whatever the staff cooked for themselves that night. Besides that quirky see-what-shows-up option are $3 pickled-oyster shooters, steak tartare, a veggie dish, and a nice selection of desserts, including a macaroon plate with divine orange-buttermilk ice cream that is sure to induce sweet dreams.

425 N.W. Market St., 420-2534, brimmerandheeltap.com
