Have you been to Annie Gunn's in STL? It's an excellent steak house. Also, in Bellville, there's a bbq joint called Beast Craft and it is really good as well.

In Chicago, Trattoria No 10, Spiaggia/Cafe Spiaggia, and Shaw's Crab House are my go-to places.

The Coach Grill in Wayland, MA just west of Boston. Great food & better service. It's the complete experience for me & Grace. We've been going for over 14 years and have had the same waiter for just about the whole time. He's the absolute best -- to the point where we adjust our schedule if he's not working.

Mother's in NOLA. I'd weigh 500 lbs if I lived anywhere close.

Giacomo's in Boston's North End -- just outstanding Italian.

Also: McDonald's

Added Annie Gunns to the list. I’m in STL probably once a month so I’ll hit it up my next trip down

After this summer, I must add Dom (jonumberone)'s backyard to my list. :-)

Smoked ribeye and bread pudding are top notch and their drink/wine list is pretty impressive.

I can confirm that this is, hands down, the best place to eat in Jersey. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Dom & Nina are beasts in the kitchen.

I've only been there once, but the food was great and we were treated like kings. I'd definitely go back,

King's Hawaiian ? :-)
[Reply]

Hey, I’ve actually eaten there!!! Great place but I would also include La Panaderia which I really enjoyed the Ranchero Eggs Benedict and the coffeee was excellent.

In Sacramento two choices for me.

Crepeville for breakfast and Mikuni’s for sushi.

Yumm.

I do like my Kings Hawaiian :-) but I was only getting to have my Kings French toast 2 to 3 times a year:-)
So I have mastered the recipe and I make my own a few times a month now:-) Next time your in town I will make you some:-)

Oh, and for me pizza in Manhattan Little Italy at Lombardi’s Americas first pizza establishment still in operation. Coal fired pizza.

Oh? Where is this place? Yardley? :-)

Cincinnati - The Precinct is a top notch steak house...one of the best I've ever been to
Charleston - Hall's Chophouse is also up there.
Nashville - Skull's Rainbow Room is almost like a speak easy in attitude, but they have fantastic food and drinks. Super laid back.
Indianapolis - Eddie Merlot's is always great.

These are the only places I get to with any frequency but if you're in the neighborhood, they're worth a check.
