San Fransisco

Old Bus Tavern

Named after a restored a 1978 Volkswagen Westfalia, this neighborhood brewpub in Bernal Heights is owned by long-time pals, avid homebrewers and lovers of old VW buses, naturally. “Old Bus” is an expression of the humble, steady and unfettered approach they take to brewing, cooking and making cocktails. Go for the beer, stay for the sunchoke tempura. // Bernal Heights. Book Now at Old Bus Tavern.

Mosu

Ladies and gentlemen, the doors are finally open and chef-owner Sung Anh, formerly of The French Laundry and Benu, has a contemporary American kaiseki-style tasting menu with Asian influences prepped for you. With dishes like “Truffle, sea urchin, sake lee with fish head extract,” this tasting menu is certain to excite all of your senses. Seriously, you don’t want to miss this. // Fillmore District.

New York

Soothsayer

Run by New York natives Stephan Brezinsky and his family, this Kickstarter funded restaurant has a menu that includes fried rice with duck sausage, cured fresh sardines and many more. Warm hospitality and an emphasis on local, seasonal, and sustainable ingredients? You know it. // East Village. Book now at Soothsayer.

The Cannibal

The bike-friendly, butcher’s restaurant where you can snack on some cacio e pepe chips or indulge in an entire pig or lamb (for larger parties). The menu is fun and the beer list includes an extensive amount of European and domestic options available to go or to stay. Meat, check. Good times, you know it. // NoMad. Book Now at The Cannibal.

Salvation Burger

As seen on The Resy Hit List: NYC, April Bloomfield (of the Spotted Pig, Breslin, and more) has got a burger that photographs well and tastes glorious. No, they aren’t taking reservations but they’re still a part of the crew. // Midtown East. Walk ins only.

Timna

Also seen on The Resy Hit List: NYC, this Modern Israeli-Mediterranean restaurant serves dishes that are all insta-ready. Pro tip: do NOT miss the bread, it’s homemade and it’s heavenly. // St. Marks. Book now at Timna.

Washington DC

Maketto

Located in a food and fashion marketplace, this “H Street hangout looks, acts and tastes like a party,” said The Washington Post. Their mission is, “to build a sense of community through quality, consistency, and accessibility,” and Maketto certainly delivers. Erik Bruner-Yang is known for making the best ramen in town, at Toki Underground (new to the app*), but he’s also fantastic at Cambodian and Taiwanese cooking. // H Street NE. Book now at Maketto.

Toki Underground

Toki is not the first ramen house in D.C. but Erik Bruner-Yang definitely incited a ramen obsession. Toki serves some of the city’s best ramen, but the intense wait times often exceed multiple hours. Fellow slurpers, look no further than the app to book your seat at this kimchi ramen and fried chicken steamed buns serving joint. // H Street NE. Book now at Toki Underground.

If you’re in the mood for marrow order the beef and bone marrow pie for two. “In the unlikely event you have room for dessert, you might try Chi Spacca’s boozy tiramisu” – Jonathan Gold. It’s all about SPACCA. // Hancock Park. Book now at chi SPACCA.

Winsome

A new beacon of hip, Winsome has knocked it out of the park. Brought to you by the tag team behind The Spare Room, every detail is an ode to the neighborhood. Stand by, breakfast and lunch are currently being served but dinner and cocktails are coming soon. // Echo Park. Book now at Winsome.
