Ever wonder where the 10 best restaurants in the country are? Well, Yelp has its answer in its official list of its highest-rated restaurants in the US. But don't take it from us. We've included some of the most popular reviews from each one's Yelp page, getting it straight from the horse's mouth.
Price: Inexpensive
Style: Japanese
Location: Honolulu
Review: "If I could find a Marukame Udon near my house, I would be there every morning for breakfast, probably lunch and dinner too. I love this cafeteria style noodle house. The noodles are handmade, you can see them constantly making noodles every 15 minutes. The broth is delicious and I love their assorted tempura and their prices are awesome considering they are in the heart of Waikiki."
Price: Moderate
Style: Barbeque
Location: Austin, TX
Review: "Beef brisket, $20 per lb, if you didn't know what Franklin's known for, it's this. This is one thing you MUST get. Perfectly smoked brisket. You get your choice of fatty or lean. Moist, tender, and barky. Pure meat artistry at its finest."
8. Mama D's Italian Kitchen
Price: Moderate
Style: Italian
Location: Newport Beach, CA
Review: "Mama D's just became my favorite and #1 Italian Restaurant! All the servers and waitress were supper friendly and sweet. They make sure that you're well taken care of from the wait until you leave the restaurant!"
"The food was top notch! I got the Sorrento with Linguini and Mama D's Pink Sauce. Oh my goodness, best pasta I've had outside of Italy!"
Price: Moderate
Style: Gastropubs, Burgers, Bars
Location: LA
Review: "The Morrison is legit! Delicious gastropub in Atwater Village that's a perfect after-work spot to eat a good craft burger and beer. They have an extensive whiskey menu that I didn't get to try this time, but I will return!
Price: Ultra High-End
Style: American (New)
Location: San Francisco
Review: "One of a few near-perfect dinners I have ever enjoyed, including my 1st visit almost four years ago.
The girlfriend adored the Roast Quail Stuffed with Mushroom Ragout, Leeks, Quinoa and Foie Gras on Black Eyed Peas, Ham Hocks and Maitake, the presentation is spot on and the funghi and foie gras really build on the slightly gamey taste of the tender quail."
Price: Moderate
Style: Delis, Bakeries, Sandwiches
Location: Indio, CA
Review: "Customer Service is so awesome! How refreshing! From the moment you walk in you feel at ease and happy. The staff is awesome and the sandwiches we enjoyed even better!"
"We had chicken with artichoke pesto sandwich and a veggie sandwich. Everything was fresh, and the BREAD was incredible! If we are ever in the area again we will be back!! Love, love!"
4. Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que
Price: Moderate
Style: Barbeque
Location: Kansas City, KS
Review: "I'm not from around here...let me just clear the air right away with that. Kansas City definitely has a love affair with Barbecue. This city would have to be the undisputed underdog champions of the game.
I got the 'Z-Man,' a sandwich composed of sliced brisket, provolone cheese, onion rings, and sauce. That combination will eradicate your mouth, my friend. It's definitely that good. Plus I ordered the brisket and rib combo with the spicy slaw for the purpose of a late night snack."
Price: Inexpensive
Style: Caribbean, Cuban, Sandwiches
Location: Seattle
Review: "Honestly it is as good as people say it is. I have probably gone here 20+ times and it never gets old.
I won't lie, when I heard that Paseo had closed (before they reopened under new management) I cried for about a week. The day I heard they were reopening was one of the happiest days of my life."
Price: Inexpensive
Style: Pizza
Location: Berkeley, CA
Review: "So the way that The Cheese Board works is that each day they only produce one type of pizza and one kind of salad. As soon as we arrived, there was a long line out the door (which apparently is very common, but don't be afraid)."
"I keep dreaming of the pizza I had with mushrooms, garlic, pine nuts, and delicious, delicious cheese."
Price: Inexpensive
Style: Bakeries, Cuban, Cafe
Location: Burbank, CA
Review: "Can you ever go wrong with Porto's? Like, really? They have great food with great prices. The only thing is the lines are long, but it's worth it and it goes pretty fast since the place is run so efficiently. I just wished they stayed open longer, but with such great business, why would they need to?"
