  • Arkansas's Best Burger: Kat Robinson has eaten burgers all over the American South, and she's found a great one at Capital Bar and Grill in Little Rock.
  • Cambridge 1: It makes sense that the pizzas here are grilled over a charcoal fire; this hip bar used to be a firehouse. Take note that the tasty pies are "a hybrid between a pizza, an open-faced flatbread sandwich, and a salad."
  • Spam, the New Bar Snack : At Lani Kai in Manhattan, tiki cocktails are served with traditional Hawaiian snacks such as Spam mac & cheese and poi doughnuts made from mashed taro root and drizzled with a warm caramel and rum dipping sauce.
  • Phoenecia: The pizza in this Seattle spot is known for its "gargantuan crust" which takes up "four of the ten inches of pizza real estate." Luckily the crust tastes as good as it looks, especially on the namesake Phoenecia pie.

  • Star Tavern: Adam Kuban gives his seal of approval to the superb bar-style pies at this famous New Jersey joint. Try the plain pie first.
  • Bad Buns: The burger patties at Delphine's in Los Angeles are "rich and salty and full of flavor," but served on a shockingly bad bun that was more of a "dry mass" of half-heated bread than anything else.
  • Fish Tag: This restaurant on the Upper West Side of Manhattan serves up surprising renditions of delicious fish-y dishes.
  • Fancy Burger...Minus the LaFrieda: The fancy burger at Red Rooster in Manhattan's Harlem is "juicy and well-cooked," proving that delicious LaFrieda beef isn't necessary to carry a burger to superstardom.

  • Montreal in Brooklyn: Mile End, a Montreal-style deli in Brooklyn, is best known for its smoked meats, though we found the matzo ball soup and meatless poutine to be much better alternatives.
  • Prime Burgers in LA: This classic steakhouse burger at Taylor's Steakhouse doesn't come with any extras, which lets the "beautifully cooked" patty "with a juicy pink center and a solid, if not perfect char" shine through.
  • Pizzeria 712: This impressive Neapolitan-style pizza joint is located 45 miles south of Salt Lake City, wedged in between strip malls and rent-an-office spaces.
  • West Chester Dispatch: Billy Burger in West Chester, PA is a mostly take-out joint whose namesake burger, with cheese, sautéed onions, and mushrooms, is minimally seasoned, "letting the Angus beef speak for itself."
  • Deep Dish Discovery: Daniel Zemans finally uncovers a deep-dish pizza worth eating at Lou Malnati's in Lincolnwood, IL. It comes with either regular or buttercrust, though the better option is fairly obvious.

  • Crave Real Food: The menu at this restaurant in Castle Rock, Colorado, has a myriad of unusual and delicious burgers such as the "Cubano," which includes a beef patty topped with ham, chorizo scrambled eggs, breaded fried pork loin, a split and griddled hot dog, avocado, tomato, and chipotle mayo in between two egg buns.
  • Mozzarella Bar: The $29.50 tasting at the Italian chain Obikà is for the biggest of mozzarella fans. What you get is far from "rubbery hunks of Polly-O," but after awhile it all starts to look (and taste) the same.
  • Antonio's Pizzeria: Good ol' family tradition is alive and well at this pizza joint in Sherman Oaks, California. The pies are just as unpretentious as the red checkered cloths that cover each table.
  • John Dory Revival: This popular Manhattan oyster bar is back with a Mediterranean twist, where diners can try "bracingly briny, freshly shucked oysters, some from both coasts" in a casual and slightly kitschy environment.
  • Delicious Drive-In Burgers: The delicious side of fast food is showcased at Capitol Burgers, a SoCal drive-in whose food (and prices) are still stuck in in a '50's timewarp.
  • Veraci Pizza: The pizza from this brick and mortar restaurant in Seattle suffers from a "pasty sauce and bland cracker crust," but the pies from their roving mobile cart seem to fare much better.

  • A Porky Good Time: The folks at Hakata Tonton in Manhattan's West Village really love their pork, demonstrated by the restaurant's menu, which features a dizzying amount of Asian-inspired variations of the other white meat.
  • In-Side-Out Burgers: The bun is in between the patties, which are on top of the lettuce and tomato of the deconstructed burger at Spork in San Francisco. But does that a better burger make?
  • Art of Pizza: Daniel Zemans finds the perfect stuffed pie at this Chicago slice joint. The "golden crust filled with a stunning amount of mozzarella," makes the potentially long wait well worth it.
  • Eggnog and More: What are the best winter cocktails in New York? The Serious Eats team undertook an epic bar crawl of toddies, spiked hot chocolate, and more to find out.

  • Riverpark: Tom Colicchio's new restaurant on Manhattan's East River may be out of most people's way, but it's worth the trek.
  • Slyce, Not Slice: This new Chicago coal oven pizza joint serves up some of the best pies in the city featuring "creamy house-made mozzarella" and a sauce that mixes four types of canned tomatoes.
  • Big Burgers: The secret behind the huge burgers at Zippy's Giant Burgers in Seattle is their meat, which is ground fresh everyday in-house. Left to cook on the grill "until the outside of the ground neck-off chuck roll forms a dark, crunchy shell," these are burgers to recreate at your next summer cookout.
  • Pumpkin Pie: Need pumpkin pie this Thanksgiving in New York? Serious Eats tasted their way through 20 to find you the best pumpkin pie in NYC.
