Business traveller - good places to eat alone downtown

I will be staying downtown (Emabassy Suites) this week and would like to have any suggestion on places to eat downtown where I can eat at alone?

I have eaten at Southwest and I think that would be fine, but i would like something a little more interesting - possibly w/ good wine by the glass.

Thanks!

Here%26#39;s an article on solo dining from the NY Times. You%26#39;ll have to register for free to read it, but it%26#39;s worthwhile. I%26#39;d copy the whole thing but there are some good links.
