  4. Oak-paneled walls and Art Deco bones give this seafood bar and grill the feel of a Manhattan that existed before Madison Square Garden became a tourist landmark. The menu leans hard into oysters, Little Neck clams, and lobster rolls, with a beer list long enough to keep the IPA faithful occupied. It draws the kind of crowd that knows exactly where it's going in a neighborhood where most people are just trying to find the arena.

  33. A short walk from the Staten Island Ferry, this old-school steakhouse keeps the lights low, the wood dark, and the ambitions firmly on the plate. Dry-aged steaks anchor the menu, with oysters close behind. No spectacle, no trend-chasing, just that particular outer-borough calm that suggests the room has been quietly holding its ground for a very long time and sees no reason to stop.

  45. A block from the beach in Del Mar, Sbicca is a California casual restaurant with a sidewalk patio built for lingering over wine while the foot traffic does its thing. The menu runs from shishito peppers and Korean beef lettuce wraps to buttermilk fried chicken and herb-crusted halibut, the kind of range that keeps a table of four from arguing too long. Good for dinner before a walk down to the water.

  47. A casual American restaurant in downtown Apex where the menu quietly ignores the idea that Korean barbecue sauce and pulled pork shouldn't share a bowl. The burgers are the draw, but shrimp and grits with gochujang and cast iron skillet chicken keep things interesting. It gets busy, and the staff move tables along at a clip, so a short wait at the door usually resolves itself fast.

  69. A neighborhood restaurant in Decatur where the menu drifts happily between lamb shepherd's pie, shrimp and grits, and a roster of signature burgers without feeling like it's having an identity crisis. Small plates and big entrées coexist, much of it gluten-free or adaptable. Craft cocktails, solid beer and wine, and a patio that pulls people into the kind of long, unhurried evening nobody planned to have.

  93. A Belgian bistro that takes the waffle seriously enough to turn it into a vehicle for a Hot Brown, which is either inspired or unsettling depending on your feelings about Kentucky. Waffles and galettes anchor the menu alongside steak frites and mussels, with an open kitchen and hardwood floors giving the room a casual, neighborhood feel. The s'mores waffle exists, and that seems like information worth having.

  94. Tables on a patio steps off the Brighton Beach boardwalk, with the Atlantic doing its thing just beyond. This sprawling Russian restaurant is modeled on the festive seaside dining culture of Odessa, which means the menu runs from smoked fish and shish kebab to foie gras, and the room is never quiet about it. The crowd brings its own occasion. The gratuity situation is explained on the bill, which is the kind of transparency you appreciate after the fact.

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      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.
