  21. Sicilian-style square slices, thick and airy, come out on paper plates at this cash-only North End slice shop that's been an institution forever. The compact menu runs to arancini, calzones, and potato croquettes, all at prices that feel like a clerical error in 2024. Arrive early on weekdays; on weekends they only open for dinner, and popular items have a habit of disappearing before the line does.

  30. Open-air and waterfront, this casual seafood spot sits where the only dress code is "not dripping wet, probably." Oysters and clams on the half shell anchored by local catch, conch fritters, and beer-steamed shrimp keep things exactly as Key West as they should be. Happy hour draws the early crowd, and the Key lime pie is non-negotiable. Bring cash, bring sunscreen, and don't be surprised if a pelican files a competing claim on your shrimp.

  82. Rank 15991. Le Monde

    French

    A three-meals-a-day French brasserie on Upper Broadway, close enough to Columbia that the booth next to you is probably arguing philosophy. The room pulls in Francophiles, rumpled academics, and students from everywhere, giving it a genuine Left Bank café energy without anyone having to board a plane. Classic French cooking, a lively corner of the neighborhood, and no particular need to dress up.

  84. Rank 15991. Legasea

    Seafood

    The awards


  85. The tavern name comes from Henry Lee, whose riding so impressed George Washington that he earned the nickname Light Horse Harry. Centuries later, the beautifully restored dining room and street terrace in downtown Jersey City draw a neighborhood crowd for lobster rolls, shrimp po boys, crab cakes, and fried clam baskets, plus burgers when the mood calls for it. A casual American tavern that takes its history seriously but not its dress code.

  94. Rank 15991. Lucia Pasta Bar

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    Seats at the pasta bar put you close enough to watch the handmade work up close, which is either charming or pressure-inducing depending on your relationship with eye contact. This rustic Italian spot on Bull Street runs wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas alongside handmade pastas, and the squid ink bucatini tends to be the one people mention afterward. Italian wines and cocktails round it out, and the patio is a nice option when Savannah cooperates.

Metros

Eat Score

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.
