The Latin House

The Bandeja Paisa is a full meal on one plate, portioned generously enough to share. Six or seven tables total, so call ahead or risk being turned away. The lomo saltado and empanadas have brought regulars back for years, and the food is made to order every time.

American

Peppermill Cafe Standale

★ 4.7(1,421)· $

The supreme omelette and the corned beef Eggs Benedict keep regulars coming back to this Standale diner. Breakfast and lunch are served all day, portions run large, and the bread selection includes gluten-free options alongside a wall of hot sauce choices. Waitlist waits hover around 15-20 minutes on busy mornings.

Mexican

El Tapatio

★ 4.7(204)· $$

The complimentary chips and salsa get called out repeatedly here, and reviewers say they're a cut above what other Mexican spots in the area serve. Nachos Carbon, loaded with chicken and steak on crispy chips, and the Strawberry Piña Colada Margarita have each earned their own fans. One warning: the dining room runs cold enough that coats stay on.

Thai

Aroy Thai

★ 4.3(461)· $

The green curry and massaman curry draw regulars back to this Walker strip on Lake Michigan Drive, and the generous portion sizes are a recurring point of praise. The curry pad thai gets called out specifically as the best in town. Spice levels run genuinely hot, and the menu warns you: order mild if you mean it.

American

Roasted

★ 4.3(266)· $$

The chipotle barbecue burger and chipotle chicken dish get repeated mentions across visits, and the garlic parm cheese curds have their own fan base. Desserts draw some enthusiasm too, with one group knocking out three in a single sitting. The menu runs wide, from pizza nights to gluten-free options, and the kitchen lands more hits than misses.

American

Lost Art Catering

★ 4.7(87)· $$

The Frankenstein burger draws repeat mentions, a smash patty stacked with bold flavor and Russian dressing-style Smash Sauce. Counter-order setup, pager system, and loaded smash fries at $14 round out the format. Now operating inside Lost Art Brewhouse on Remembrance Road, with the Black IPA on tap for pairing.
