At the corner of 3rd and Hampshire is the Tiramisu Italian restaurant.  Tiramisu features simple, classic Italian dishes that use fresh ingredients (You can see and taste the fresh tomatoes in the marinara sauce).  When the main course is done, be sure to order some tiramisu, a desert that features lady fingers (a type of spogue cake), coffee, and cream.  To learn more about Tiramisu, you can visit their website here.
