  9. Pozole comes in red, green, and white here, and the red is the one to get: a steaming bowl big enough to require planning, with chunks of pork and hominy swimming in a broth that actually has some heat to it. Cabbage, avocado, and radish go in, lime and cilantro finish it off, and suddenly whatever was wrong with your day is negotiable. A casual pozoleria on East Van Buren that the Phoenix New Times named best pozole in the city.

  18. The sourdough starter here has a name, Harriet, and she has been busy. Proof is a community bakery that mills its own locally grown heritage grain on-site, which gives the loaves a depth that pre-bagged flour just doesn't reach. Country loaves, English muffins, and twice-baked croissants are the draws, and the lines at Valley farmers markets tell you what to expect before you arrive. Multiple Phoenix-area locations now, with more on the way.


  19. Punk Wok is a casual sushi counter tucked into a corner of the Sylvan Supply complex on Charlotte, the kind of spot that predates the recent flood of sushi openings and has never felt the need to mention it. Happy hour runs three hours, every day, with half-price maki, nigiri, and sashimi and $2 domestic beers. Nashville Scene gave it Best Happy Hour in 2025, which the math on that deal mostly explains.

  29. The coin-operated carnival scale near the door is either a warning or a dare, depending on your confidence level. Regio's is a casual Mexican breakfast-and-lunch spot tucked practically under the SR-51 overpass, brighter inside than the exterior suggests. Breakfast runs all day, the burritos are large enough to count as a structural element, and they come out hot and genuinely juicy. Phoenix New Times gave it Best Breakfast Burrito in 2025.

  30. The glass case runs long and cold, stocked with Ohio-raised Wagyu and whole-animal cuts that make you reconsider your dinner plans on the spot. Rekas is a butcher shop and deli in the old Cincinnati tradition, where you can take home a porterhouse or just let someone else do the work and order a Wagyu roast beef sandwich. The team behind Wyoming Meat Market built this one, and it shows in the quality of what's in the case.


  31. Retrograde is a bright, clean coffee shop in City Heights, and by midmorning it fills with the laptop crowd, the same remote workers who lost their last roost when a beloved Nations spot closed. They're easy to pardon, since the whipped feta and prosciutto toast tastes like a Germantown brunch with the reservation and the markup removed. Nashville Scene named it the best thing on toast in 2025.

  40. The coffee bar lives inside a furniture showroom, so you're welcome to settle into a display sofa while you drink. The thing that earns attention here is the cold foam, a thick mashed-banana crown with vanilla and agave that sits heavy on a latte or cold brew like it means business. Foam skeptics tend to announce, unprompted, that it tastes like banana pie on their coffee. They're not wrong.

  47. Cynthia Quezada runs this pop-up esquites stand out of a home near I-17 and Dunlap, pink apron and crockpot at the ready. She'll scoop the corn into a cup, box, or over a chip bag, then send you to a condiment bar stocked with key limes, salsas, and spices to finish the job yourself. Her 145,000 TikTok followers already know all this. The Styrofoam cup buried under cheese and crema is the whole point.


  48. The pepper grinder is a yard long and bright red, which tells you everything you need to know about the vibe here. Sexy Roman is a hotel restaurant inside the W Scottsdale that has fully committed to the bit: espresso martinis arrive with gold-dusted beans, the seafood tower exhales cold smoke, and a drink cart appears when you flip your table light from white to red. It's theatrical on purpose, and the room plays along.

  49. Fabric lovers, Silk Road Textiles in College Hill is your answer to the great JoAnn's void. This independent fabric shop carries an impressive range of ethically sourced textiles from around the world, whether you're sewing a garment or reupholstering a sad armchair. The staff actually knows their stuff, and regular in-store classes cover sewing, quilting, crocheting, and more, so beginners have no excuse to stay stuck on YouTube tutorials.

  55. Sperry's Mercantile is a gourmet market and prepared-foods shop out in Bellevue, where the casseroles are fancy enough to bring to a dinner party and pass off as your own. Beyond the grab-and-go case you'll find a wine section, full meat and seafood counters, and a dining room next door. There's also a drive-thru for breakfast and lunch, a thing the Belle Meade original has the good sense not to attempt.

  56. Sperry's Mercantile is a gourmet market and prepared-foods shop, the kind where dinner arrives in a container and you take the credit. The Bellevue outpost has a full seafood and meat counter, a curated wine wall, and a drive-thru for breakfast and lunch, which is not a sentence you expect about a place with fancy chicken casseroles. It took Nashville Scene's Best Grab-and-Go Expansion. Eat in the dining room or carry it home.

  57. A doughnut shop in Norwood where pimento cheese, hot honey, Parmesan, and crushed red pepper can all end up on the same pastry. The vegan brioche dough is the constant, chewy and sturdy enough to hold whatever combination the team feels like trying next. Regulars like Butter & Salt anchor the case, while a rotating monthly menu swings further out. The savory side is where things get genuinely strange, in the best possible sense.

  61. Rank 13782. Strangeways

    Beer Bar

    The Yelp complaint that someone left about the music not being changeable is basically the place's mission statement. Strangeways is an East Dallas neighborhood craft beer bar with a patio, walls covered in eclectic art, and a vibe that has no interest in pleasing everyone. The beer selection earned a Dallas Observer nod. Watch for flight nights and pop-up dinners when they surface.


  62. Studio Mama is a supper club in a recording studio, where about thirty people share a multicourse meal cooked by a former studio chef, then watch a songwriter play from a few feet away. The $550 ticket buys dinner, conversation with strangers, and a set that feels like it was written for your table. It's a house concert that happens to have a proper kitchen. Nashville Scene gave it a Best of Nashville nod for Best Reason to Splurge.


  63. Rank 13782. Sugar Bowl

    Ice Cream Shop

    Pink booths, a soda fountain counter, and ice cream sodas that have been drawing Scottsdale families for what feels like forever. This old-school ice cream parlor is better known for sundaes than sandwiches, but the lunch menu holds its own: turkey salad with avocado, tea sandwiches, chili with cheese. The kind of place where saving room for dessert isn't advice so much as the whole point of showing up.


  64. Rank 13782. SuperNormal

    Burger Joint

    SuperNormal is a burger counter in Sylvan Park, and the move here is the packaging. Your burger and fries ride side by side in a bright orange cube with three vent holes punched in the lid, so the steam escapes and nothing goes limp on the drive home. It's fast-ish food with the design instincts of a gallery gift shop. Nashville Scene gave it Best Presentation/Packaging in 2025, which tells you where the effort went.


  65. A conveyor belt sushi spot where the plan is simple: sit down, grab whatever rolls past, and stop thinking about your day. Plates are color-coded by price, and the belt moves fast enough that you can take the edge off with salmon nigiri before you've even decided what you want. There's a full menu too, if you'd rather order, but half the fun is watching the Philly Roll clear the final corner and head your way.

  66. The biscuits at this Fenway barbecue joint are built to soak up the drippings from brined, smoked chicken, which tells you something about the kitchen's priorities. Tiffani Faison of Food Network fame runs the place, and the slow-smoked ribs and charred brisket have kept regulars coming back for years. Coleslaw and picnic sides fill out the heavy trays. Boston Magazine named it the city's top barbecue in 2025.

          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.
