bowls and pho, Brothers BBQ for Denver’s best bbq, Edgewater Inn for pizza, and McCormick’s Fish House(downtown) for their 3-6pm happy hour deals, which are unbeatable. And in Golden, there are two places that really...

Aldo’s isn’t that great. Isle of Capri (which is on top of the Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort) is better, but can still be hit or miss. In general, good Italian food in VA Beach is hard to come by. For breakfast, try...

(hospital on the left, Hilltop inn on the right). Stay in that lane and head into Barre. Take that through another set of lights, then you’ll be at a set of lights at the corner of Main Street (motel on your right). Turn...

Broad Arrow Tavern in Freeport. Does not have views but is comfortable and fun resto inside the Harraseeket Inn. Extremely varied menu focused on local meats/seafood/produce menu at www.harraseeketinn.com

: Outstanding Italian in a slick and comfortable setting. The owner Sal will probably visit your table. Steinhilber’s Thalia Acres Inn: Amazing 60 year waterfront restaurnt. Famous for fried shrimp. Food is OK but Setting is...

I second Maritime, excellent brews. Elysian Brewpub on capital hill is also a good one. For good pub grub/bistro food, check out the 74th Street Alehouse (on Phinney Ridge) or the Hilltop Alehouse (in Queen Anne)...same owners,...

There used to be a great one in Melbourne on US 1 and Suntree Blvd. across from the FLORIDA TODAY building called the Pineda Inn— big patio out on the river, cheap beer, fantastic food. I’ve heard they changed owners...

I think these fit the criteria: Santarpio’s in East Boston, Parziale’s Bakery in the North End and No Name Restaurant. I know you are looking for Boston proper, I think a shout out to Hilltop Steakhouse in Saugus and...

The Inn at Jarrett Farm is beautifully situated on a hilltop halfway between the two. http://www.jarrettfarm.com/ Also check out my recs on new restaurants in Tulsa http://www.chowhound.com/topics/365435

Doc: The Carneros Inn is a very good choice for a couple. Excellent breakfasts every day at the Boon Fly Cafe and weekend brunch for hotel guests at the Hilltop. Lunch, tails and dinner at the more upscale Farm. Spa is terrific...

a couple of pleasant dinners at the Hatch Cover (530 223-5606) at 202 Hemsted. Steaks, seafood, etc, more formal atmosphere and a nice view of the Sacramento River. We’ve always enjoyed the sushi at Toyko Garden, on Hilltop...

. In order, my preferences are for Napa: Pilar Pere Jeanty Terra Martini House Zuzu and for Sonoma: Hilltop Cafe General’s Daughter La Salette Girl & The Fig Cafe La Haye

10 miles northwest of Fredericksburg on Hwy. 87 is Hilltop Cafe. Located inside an old “filling station,” it’s a mix of Cajun and Greek with a Texas slant.

for the business account option, see my post a bit ago on the Lark Creek Inn; definitely a ‘California’ type of place. They also have a cheaper (but not cheap) all day menu in the bar, which would be a nice option on...

is from Hong Kong. The Hilltop and its ilk are also ruled out. Anything else is open for consideration though. thanks, chowcat
