The Best Places to Eat and Do in the United States

  1. Rank 9081. Gott’s Roadside

    Burger Joint







  2. A vast Cantonese dim sum hall in Norcross where the carts actually keep rolling until three in the afternoon, with a dining room big enough that you're not elbowing anyone for the last har gow. The weekend crowds that pile into Duluth tend to skip this one, which is either the city's best-kept secret or just a matter of geography. Order congee alongside whatever the cart brings by and settle in.




  3. Rank 9081. Hat Yai

    Malaysian

    Hat Yai is a casual Southern Thai spot on Belmont where the fried chicken comes with a stack of flaky roti and a bowl of curry you will absolutely pour over everything. The breading is rice flour and tapioca, so it shatters, and the pickles on the side are there to remind you that you have a palate. Orders at nearly every table look identical, which is the closest thing Portland has to a group chat.

  31. Kofu Dumpling House is a casual dumpling shop tucked into a quiet strip mall in Mesa's Asian District, in a plaza that used to be anchored by a grocery store. The menu runs from steamed dumplings to folded wontons to pillowy buns, and the Red Chili Wontons arrive in a bowl of chile oil so bright it looks like a dare. Order at a table, wear whatever you like, and expect to need a napkin.


  32. Kogi Gogi is an all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue spot in the Sunset, where the grill sits at your table and the dress code is whatever you already had on. The long, easygoing room suits big groups and weeknight stragglers alike, and the pork belly and bulgogi arrive thin and sweet-salty. Monday to Thursday, a flat per-person price covers four meats and three sides, so nobody has to do math over the smoke.

  36. The individual library-style carrels built into the "solid oak retail structure" tell you everything: this Danish roastery and coffee shop in Bushwick is more serious than cozy. The cafe wraps across several storefronts of an upcycled industrial block, with roasting operations visible in back and a pastry counter up front where the warm staff, dressed in lab coats, quietly undercut the austere Scandinavian design. The pastries routinely upstage the excellent coffee.

  40. A food stall inside Jusgo supermarket, Lao Wei Dao does Shanghai-style dim sum, which means no rolling carts and no Cantonese shortcuts. Order from a kiosk and wait, because the dumplings are folded to order. The xiao long baos and pan-fried pork dumplings are why people bother making the drive out to Duluth. Closed Wednesdays, counter service, and genuinely easy to miss if you've never thought to look inside a grocery store for dinner.


  41. Lardo is a casual sandwich shop on SE Hawthorne that grew out of a food cart, and the pork shoulder sando still draws people in with kimchi, chile aioli, and a grilled ciabatta that won't survive your wrists. Portland Monthly put it on its list of the city's most iconic dishes. The dirty fries come buried in pickled peppers and pork bits, so plan on a nap and a loose waistband.

  45. Rank 9081. Loveless

    New York Nordic Coffee Shop

    The pink-tiled bar and arched mirrors make the Nordic-leaning coffee shop look like a pastel fever dream from 1987, and the baristas lean into the contrast by taking everything very seriously. Pour-overs and espresso drinks are made with their own roasts, and a bowl of oatmeal is on the table if you need it. Sustainability runs deep here, from compostable materials to a Loring roaster chosen specifically for its fuel efficiency.

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
