  2. Rank 7. El Verano

    Upscale Mexican













  3. Rank 19. Bistro Ete

    Coastal French


  4. Rank 20. Calissa

    Mediterranean


  5. Rank 21. Allium Eatery

    Modern New American











  6. Rank 31. The American Hotel

    French New American







  7. Rank 37. Taglio Pizza

    Roman-Style Pizza

    Roman-style pizza by the slice is the draw here, baked in rectangular trays with a crust that's crispy on the bottom and genuinely airy inside. This is a counter-service slice shop near a hospital complex in Mineola, so the crowd skews commuters and med students who know what they're doing. Toppings lean contemporary, burrata and mortadella among them. It ranks on both 50 Top Pizza Slice USA and 50 Top Pizza World, which for a Long Island strip-mall counter is a fun fact to drop.








  8. Part restaurant, part charcuterie counter, Augustine's Salumeria is a relaxed modern Italian spot in Mamaroneck where the menu leans hard on Westchester farms and local fishermen. The kitchen turns out Italian-leaning dishes alongside nightly specials that change the calculation every time. The room feels like a neighborhood place that happens to cook with serious intention, which is a comfortable combination.


  9. Wooster Street is New Haven apizza territory, so opening a Neapolitan pizzeria here takes a certain nerve. The family behind Zeneli trained in Naples and planted that tradition right in the middle of the local institution's turf. Wood-fired, soft-crusted pies with San Marzano tomatoes and proper mozzarella sit alongside classic Italian dishes in a room that feels genuinely like someone's people are running it.











  10. New Haven-style pizza has its own rules: thin, coal-fired, slightly charred, and not quite like anything you'd get elsewhere. Modern Apizza has been holding down State Street forever, turning out red and white pies with a crust that blisters and snaps. The Italian Bomb, loaded with cold cuts and vegetables, is the order regulars argue about. A casual, loud, no-fuss pizzeria where the line out front is a feature, not a bug.


  11. Rank 56. Utopia Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  12. Rank 57. Pizzeria La Rosa

    NY-Style Pizza Cocktail Bar









  13. Rank 65. Bagel Oasis

    NY-Style Bakery


  14. Strip-mall Sichuan in Whitestone, Queens, with a Michelin Bib Gourmand tucked behind a menu that also lists crab Rangoon for the uninitiated. The kitchen's real business is the numbing, chilli-forward cooking of Sichuan province: spicy mung bean jelly noodles, crispy eggplant with a glass-like crust, and smoked pork shaved thin enough to read through. The tears-in-eyes jelly salad delivers on the peanuts and chillies if not the weeping. Cash in your General Tso's loyalty points here.



  15. A Korean barbecue spot in Flushing's Murray Hill where the tabletop grills run hot and the room stays packed. The décor skips every trend in favor of the food, which is the right call. Banchan arrives before you've settled in, including house kimchi that's been aged long enough to mean it. The beef short ribs marinated in soy-based sauce are the move, wrapped in romaine at the table. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.


  16. Rank 69. OKO

    Japanese

    The open kitchen anchors the room at this contemporary Asian restaurant in Rye, where the chef treats Japanese cuisine as a jumping-off point rather than a blueprint. Nigiri, handrolls, and tempura share the menu with hot dishes and the kind of creative small bites that make the omakase worth considering. The lofty-ceilinged space draws a lively local crowd, and the bar fills up early. Selected by the Michelin Guide.






  17. Midnight-blue leather banquettes and exposed brick set the tone at this New Rochelle Italian restaurant, where the long bar fills early with regulars who seem to know everyone. The kitchen splits its attention between old-school classics and something a little more current, and Mom's meatballs in marinara with a scoop of ricotta make a convincing case for the old school. Chatty and unpretentious, the kind of place that makes New York's suburbs feel worth the commute.



  18. Rank 76. The Inn at Pound Ridge

    Contemporary New American

    White clapboard, manicured gardens, and a valet line that reads the room before you even step inside. This is a fine dining destination in a Victorian inn north of the city, where Jean-Georges Vongerichten's kitchen sends out contemporary New American cooking with a country-weekend ease. The menu pulls from his greatest hits, reworked for the setting, which suits the crowd who drove out from Manhattan pretending they live like this.


  19. Rank 77. Dubrovnik

    Mediterranean Wine Bar

    The custom woodwork lining Dubrovnik's dining room was built next door, in the owner's cabinetry shop, and it shows. This Mediterranean wine bar on a commercial stretch of New Rochelle draws a loyal crowd for dishes off the wood-burning oven and grill, and on certain nights, live Croatian music fills the room. The Michelin Guide has taken notice. Bring someone who enjoys lingering.




  20. Rank 80. Mama Lee

    Taiwanese Chinese

    A Taiwanese home-cooking spot in Bayside so far from the subway that getting there is its own commitment. The chef, owner, and entire staff is one woman, Mei Lee, so ring the counter bell and wait. She'd rather you didn't spread the word. The New York Times put it at number ten on their 100 Best Restaurants list, so that ship has sailed. Beef noodle soup, lion's head meatballs, and broth poured to the rim say everything the bare room doesn't.






  21. Rank 85. Sant Ambroeus

    Milanese Italian




  22. Rank 88. Il Buco al Mare

    Italian-Inspired Seafood


  23. Rank 89. Duryea's Orient Point

    Waterfront Seafood
