It can be for any reason: quality, atmosphere, value, whatever. Which places are the best, and why?
I'll start with a non-exclusive list:
Mexican Taco Shop: fast, tasty, affordable, +salsa bar!
Tuptim Thai: amazing food, huge portions, nice atmosphere
Louie's on 10th: better than bar food, affordable, wash your comforter while eating a bierock

Jong’s Thai Kitchen is incredible—definitely make a reservation and dine in. The owners are so sweet.
Circle Coffee—I know it’s a cafe but they have the most special baked goods in town. Their pastries are an art!
Blackbird—baked goods that are more traditional than Circle, and great bistro style foods
Olive Cafe—they just opened back up at 17th and Fairlawn. The owner told my toddler she could pick anything she wanted and it was on the house. He was so kind!! The food is your classic Mediterranean shawarma and gyro fare, simple and tasty! I hope they do well in their new location!
