  7. Chole bhature is the main event at this strip-mall street food spot in Franklin Park, where golden rounds of fried bread the size of cantaloupes arrive alongside bowls of dark, heavily spiced chana masala. The New Jersey Indian community found this place fast, and tables are rarely empty. The kitchen also runs a long roster of Delhi chaat and a Mumbai sideline that includes a samosa served on a bun, which is exactly what it sounds like. The New York Times put it on its 2025 Restaurant List.

  10. Rank 1412. El Encebollado de Rossy

    Ecuadorean Peruvian


  11. Rank 1412. JoJu

    Vietnamese

    The banh mi here come in wax-paper egg-roll bags, which tells you something about the register. This Elmhurst sandwich shop keeps the classics, pâté and head cheese, while slipping in Korean bulgogi alongside them. The fries arrive heaped with pickled daikon, cilantro, jalapeño, and a green sauce borrowed from Peruvian chicken spots. Julie Wong has said she wanted to embrace Queens as a melting pot, and the menu takes that brief literally.

  23. Rank 1427. Joe’s Steam Rice Roll

    Cantonese Noodle Shop

    Rice ground daily on-site in electric stone mills is the tell at this no-frills Flushing counter, a Cantonese cheong fun spot tucked into a minimall off Roosevelt Avenue. The noodle sheets come out nearly translucent, rolled around pork, shrimp, or egg to order. The New York Times gave it a Critic's Pick, which tracks: there are very few places in the city where the rice noodle itself is this clearly the point.

  41. A tasting counter in Brooklyn where the kitchen uses yuzu as sauerkraut draped over clams instead of a tidy squeeze of acid. Chef Victoria Blamey's avant-garde tasting menu runs about three hours and tends to fill your head with strong flavors that most restaurants at this price point seem too nervous to attempt. The Dungeness crab empanada, built on a Chilean abalone dish with Chartreuse and fermented black beans, is the kind of thing that makes you question your senses.

  43. A prix-fixe dinner party where strangers share a table and, apparently, an extraordinary chocolate cake. The cake alone landed on the New York Times list of top dishes of 2024: dark cocoa crumb, pink-peppercorn buttercream, and the kind of thing that makes you rethink everything you assumed about the format. Communal seating and a tasting menu in the $60 to $75 range make this feel more like a good dinner at a friend's place than a restaurant.

  44. Rank 1461. Sofreh Cafe

    Persian

    Nasim Alikhani's minimalist Persian cafe on Flatbush is the kind of place you visit for one thing and leave thinking about it for weeks. That thing is the latifeh, a traditional confection the New York Times flagged as one of 2024's top New York dishes: two rounds of soft, rose-scented cream sandwiched between pastry and rolled in salted pistachios. Made fresh constantly so they never turn soggy, each one disappears faster than you planned.

  59. Rank 1478. Indian Accent

    Modern Indian

    Blue cheese naan sounds like a provocation until it arrives and makes complete sense. This is a polished, upscale Indian restaurant from Manish Mehrotra, whose original New Delhi spot is a fixture on Asia's 50 Best, with a New York kitchen that reinterprets the subcontinent's classics into something more precise and composed. The tasting menu is how the kitchen argues its case, and the room draws a well-dressed crowd happy to let it.

          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.
