Mazza Middle Eastern Cuisine – if you have never tried Middle Eastern Cuisine, you are in for a treat. Try the shawerma, it is incredible!
9th South Delicatessen – the food is amazing! Their sandwiches are to die for and their desserts are even better! It is more expensive that Subway, but well worth it.

Tower Theater – Unique, quirky, and one of a kind. If you haven't already been, you need to go check it out.
Gilgal Park – this park is a few blocks away from 9th and 9th, but it is still definitely within walking distance. It is collection of religious carvings that are in what used to be the artist's backyard. The most famous of these carvings in the Joseph Smith sphinx. Definitely worth checking out.
