The Levantine classics like hummus and baba ganoush are properly made, the slow-cooked beef dishes hit hard, and the house-made kenafa is the kind of dessert that justifies the trip.

  74. Rank 74. Happy Baos

    Northern Chinese

    A modest counter tucked into Mekong Plaza's food court, Happy Baos has stayed put while restaurants around it come and go, turning out chewy handmade dumplings and plump steamed buns that justify the loyalty. The 20-piece dumpling combo hits five different fillings, and the dan dan noodles with crunchy peanuts are sharp enough to remember on the drive home.

  77. Rank 77. The Ends

    Global

    In Old Town Scottsdale, this warmly lit dining room channels Anthony Bourdain's appetite for the world, with tables arranged to spark conversation over drinks mixed with scientific precision. The menu roams freely—handmade pasta, egg yolk nigiri, French onion soup, Japanese Wagyu sandwich—and the shareable lamb with harissa brodo is a showstopper.

  83. Rank 83. The Stand

    A casual burger joint in Scottsdale that borrows In-N-Out's stripped-down playbook but trades it for higher-end beef and a taco menu that justifies the upgrade in price. Most dishes hit hard enough to make you a regular, even if a few menu items don't quite earn their place.

  87. Rank 87. Steak 44

    Modern Steakhouse

    A dark, polished steakhouse on Phoenix's north side that somehow feels as comfortable for a casual bar dinner as it does for celebrations, with a modern menu that ranges from hand-cut wet-aged beef to soft shell crabs in vanilla bean tempura. The 12-ounce Delmonico arrives butter-drenched with beautiful marbling, or you can splurge on truffle butter if you're feeling it.

  88. Rank 88. Jewel's Bakery And Cafe

    Gluten-Free Bakery

    A breakfast counter in east Phoenix where the entirely gluten-free menu somehow makes carbs the main event—doughnuts with real spring, waffles sturdy enough for crispy chicken and spicy bacon, burritos in supple tortillas. Whether you're avoiding gluten or just hungry, nothing here tastes like it's missing a thing, and bottomless mimosas help seal the deal.

The pastries and toast come from the same thoughtful approach, whether it's cinnamon toast or avocado on sourdough.
