How we pick: our own stories and guides first, then this year's critics and best-of lists; every place checked open and checked to do takeout or delivery. Photos marked "a photo like it" show the food, not that place's. Delivery areas and hours change; check before you order. Chef Amazing is not paid by any place on this page.
Chef Amazing remembers every place you ate, keeps the lists friends send you, and helps you cook it at home.
