Dominick's

Ann Arborites know the drill: on the Monday after University of Michigan students return from spring break, Dominick's is officially open for business, and a trip to the locally famous outdoor patio is nigh. Once there, an order of their sangria -- which many hail as the best in Ann Arbor -- is inevitable, as is something from their extensive pasta and pizza menu. The place can get crowded (there are regular lines), and a great time to visit is when local students clear out for the summer.
