  1. The Noble South

    New American

    Brick walls, wood tables, and a menu that changes with whatever the nearby farms are sending over, this New American restaurant on Dauphin Street has been quietly doing farm-to-table before the term became an eye-roll. The kitchen keeps things passionate rather than preachy, cycling through snacks, small plates, and entrees that land Gulf shrimp and blue crab alongside local grits. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.

    Two honors, in evidence:

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country and what it's like right there: how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, the air, and the weather. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
