Aruffo’s
Great Italian fare, especially the Aglio Arrostito appetizer—bruschetta, bread, fresh garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and a variety of pestos to dip it all in. Yum. 126 Yale Ave., Claremont, (909) 624-9624. $$
BC Café
Not the most beautiful place on Earth—looks like a regular old Ihop or something, BCC scores big points on fantastic food and friendly staff. The stuffed pancakes are to die for. 701 S. Indian Hill Blvd., Claremont, (909) 482-1414. $

Not a huge menu, but the eggs benedict are some of the best we’ve ever had, the penne arrabiata is killer, just like the shitake-encrusted pork loin. 206 W. Bonita, Claremont (909) 626-7763. $$
