  7. Bill's is a counter-service sandwich shop in Lockeland Springs that took over a beloved bakery's space after a stretch as a pop-up, and the menu rotates, so you're ordering on faith. Expect big, sloppy sandwiches, from meatloaf under a coat of sauce to roasted pork on focaccia, plus fried duros sold as Cheddy Ranch Puffs. Nashville Scene named it Best Sandwich Shop in 2024, so bring napkins and no plans for the afternoon.


  8. Rank 14709. Call Her Martina

    Modern Mexican

    A black-and-white dining room tucked into the Scottsdale Waterfront strip mall, where the guacamole arrives studded with pomegranate seeds and warm steak cubes, which sounds like a gimmick until it doesn't. This modern Mexican restaurant runs from quesabirria tacos to charred octopus, and the cocktails come dressed with flower petals and charred cinnamon sticks, because subtlety is apparently optional. The flan, cracked with caramel shards, lands the ending.


  9. Churros come in loops, bites, or sticks here, all fried to order, so you wait a minute and they arrive properly hot. Dulce is a dessert café in a Gilbert strip mall where the menu is essentially a build-your-own operation: pick a shape, choose a dip or glaze, add toppings if you like. The plain cinnamon sugar version makes the strongest case that the rest of the menu is just fun extras.

  10. The cheesy masala fries, available plain or loaded with chicken, lamb, or cheesesteak, are the late-night argument this fast-casual Indian spot makes for itself. Gaia Masala runs a broad menu of straight Indian dishes alongside burgers and Mediterranean staples, but the real draw is the fusion edge: tikka masala cheesesteaks, burgers dressed with mint and cucumber. The kitchen keeps late hours, which in Denver puts it in a category of roughly one.

  11. Leche de Tigre is the Peruvian counter tucked inside The Wash in Smyrna, which means you order at a window and then carry your food toward a beer like you're leaving a gas station with a very good plan. The lomo saltado sandwich keeps its sirloin, onions, and huancaina tidy on buttery French bread, a rare feat in a city of sloppy sandwiches. Ceviche and fried rice are there for the second visit, and the first one comes with fries.


  12. Leche de Tigre is a Peruvian counter tucked inside The Wash, the Nashville food hall where you can order a ceviche and carry it to a seat near the car-wash bays. The lomo saltado sandwich, sirloin and huancaina on buttery French bread, stays neatly contained, which is not a given in this city. Pair it with fries and a beer, order casually, and bring your own napkin discipline anyway.

  16. The aguas frescas here run from safe-harbor strawberry and watermelon all the way to soursop and cucumber lemon, which is a solid argument for branching out. This is a torta shop, so the sandwiches are the main event, but the drinks have their own following and earned Phoenix New Times's Best Aguas Frescas in 2024. When the Phoenix heat is doing what Phoenix heat does, a cold glass of something made with fresh fruit feels less like a beverage and more like a public service.

  18. Rank 14724. A to Z Polish Market

    Eastern European

    A deli case crammed with dozens of sausages, hams, and forcemeats is the first thing that stops you cold at this Polish specialty market in Surprise. Shelves run deep with pickles, sauerkraut, jams, and imported Eastern European spirits, and a hot deli turns out rotating Polish plates packed to go. The range is wide enough that the name barely feels like a stretch.

  19. Rank 14724. Alcove

    American

    Nearly 3,000 plants grow out of the walls at this American kitchen and bar in Over-the-Rhine, which is either the most calming dining room in Cincinnati or proof that someone really committed to a concept. The living wall runs over 300 square feet of ferns, monstera, and ficus, maintained by a local specialist. It's the kind of room that makes you feel vaguely healthy regardless of what you order.

  21. Rank 14724. Alzohour Restaurant

    Moroccan Middle Eastern

    A Moroccan restaurant tucked inside a hybrid dining room, market, and clothing boutique, where the same woman cooks your tagine and then comes out front to seat you. Steaming lamb tagines and bastilla, the savory-sweet phyllo pie dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar, are the reasons to linger. Patience is part of the deal, but the food rewards it. Phoenix New Times named it the valley's best North African restaurant in 2024.

  24. A flat ten-dollar cover gets you unlimited play across 15,000 square feet of classic cabinets, pinball machines, fighters, and Japanese rhythm games, with Magic: The Gathering tables if you want to really commit to the night. The bar runs video-game-themed cocktails, regular tournaments draw serious competitors, and nobody's rushing you out. Cincinnati Magazine named it a Gamer Paradise, which tracks.


  25. The display case here looks like it belongs in a European charcuterie, packed with cuts trimmed as carefully as a jeweler sets stones. This is a full-service butcher shop sourcing beef, pork, and lamb from Arizona ranches, with house-made sausages, cured meats, and a freezer worth raiding. Fresh pasta, local eggs, and pantry staples round it out. The staff actually know their meat and will talk you through it, which remains a butcher shop's rarest offering.

  32. Rank 14724. Berdena's

    Coffee



  33. If your back aches after every ride, BioWheels is the kind of bike shop that actually figures out why. They use motion capture technology to analyze how you move while you're riding, then dial in your fit accordingly. It's surprisingly technical for something you supposedly already know how to do. The crowd is serious cyclists who've finally decided to stop suffering in silence and do something about it.

  35. Black Rabbit is a casual downtown Nashville spot with a menu built around one slightly awkward fact about its name. The signature order is the Rabbit Roll, a griddled terrine of sliced rabbit tucked into a buttery roll with Swiss, mustard, and pickled onions. It's a slider, technically, and the Nashville Scene named it the city's best in 2024. Order it knowing that your inner child may file a complaint.

  38. Cal's Country Kitchen is a meat-and-three on Dickerson Road, run by a son who shut down his own chicken-in-a-waffle-cone operation to take over his mother's old spot. The original sign made the move too, which is the kind of loyalty you can't fake. The menu lives on a handwritten board that changes daily, so plan on a line and a lunch you can't fully predict. Nashville Scene gave it Best Comeback in 2024.

  44. Rank 14724. Chili Miso Udon, Café Mochiko

    Japanese Noodle Shop


  45. A small chocolatier in Fountain Hills where the bonbons are the reason to make the drive. Louis and Denise Mirabella work in the bean-to-bar mode, making chocolate in-house, but the real draw is their bonbon range, which runs from classic cherry cordials and gianduja to passionfruit caramel and zinfandel ganache. The fillings hit with an intensity that makes each piece feel like it's been concentrated down to its purest form. Phoenix New Times named them best bonbons in 2024.

  46. Rank 14724. Cincy Crab

    Seafood

    Cincy Crab is a seafood boil spot in Springdale where the whole point is eating with your hands, bibs and all. You pick your seafood by the pound, choose a sauce, and it all arrives with corn, sausage, and potatoes in a bag you basically attack at the table. Ohio is a long way from any coastline, but the place doesn't seem to notice. Cincinnati Magazine named its seafood boil the city's best in 2024.

          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.
