ANTICO PIZZA NAPOLETANA<\/strong><\/p>\n

The best pizzas linger in memory and spark cravings long after that last piece is gone. Antico Pizza Napoletana\u2019s original Westside location presents several contenders with its straightforward menu of 11 pizzas (five with red sauce, six with white) plus three calzones. San Gennaro makes taste buds swoon with its sweet, spicy, savory and salty combination of sausage, peppers, bufala mozzarella and cippolini onion atop the restaurant\u2019s signature charred-yet-chewy crust. The specialty Sophia pizza is topped with mozzarella, onion, mushrooms and a hint of white truffle oil with sophisticated results. The crowd-pleasing Margherita D.O.P. presents a tantalizing combination of imported tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. Lasagna pizza tops red sauce with meatballs, ricotta and Romano cheeses for flavors that are mild yet satisfying. Off-menu items include a pre-packaged salad and imported drinks. You\u2019re welcome to bring a bottle of wine to enjoy alongside your meal with no corkage fee.<\/p>\n

DEL FRISCO\u2019S GRILLE<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the Texas-based chain is known for superb steaks, fusion appetizers and flatbreads, we think the burgers are sensational. In particular, the Pimento Cheese Burger, an uptown riff on the Big Mac, is a tower of juicy deliciousness: two patties with lettuce, tomato and pickle; plus housemade \u201csloppy sauce\u201d (it\u2019s like a smooth Thousand Island); plus two generous smears of pimento cheese, which slides down the stack and seals in all that juicy goodness. Del Frisco\u2019s gets special points for packaging: The burger sits coyly in a partly open paper wrapper, while the fries are in a little paper cone on the side. A cold, frothy draft beer is the clincher.<\/p>\n

Appetizers: $7-$16.50
\nSandwiches and flatbreads: $12.50-$18
\nSteaks: $29.50-$39.50<\/p>\n

That fact makes it so much fun to order what you like and explore dishes such as tender-crisp charred octopus, shrimp saganaki, pan-seared potato gnocchi, whole grilled branzino and bone-in short rib served over spiced lentils and basmati rice.

OK CAF\u00c9<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just as we send diners to Bone\u2019s for the definitive steakhouse experience, we suggest OK Caf\u00e9 as a classic diner with a strong Southern twang. The offerings here are anchored in time and tradition: Root beer floats and cherry lemonade are called Black Cows and Pink Ladies. Meat-and-twos and veggie plates laden with silken collards and exquisite mac and cheese are meant to be washed down with sweet ice tea and sopped up with a perfect corn muffin. Fat slices of meatloaf encrusted with tomato sauce, roast turkey with cornbread dressing and gravy, chicken pot pie with an adorable little \u201cOK\u201d stamped onto its puff-pastry blanket\u2014this stuff draws a crowd. If you don\u2019t want to play the waiting game, you\u2019d better arrive before 11 a.m. or between the lunch and dinner rush. After a quarter-century, OK Caf\u00e9 never goes out of style.<\/p>\n
