The 24 Best Restaurants in Houston

"At Lankford Grocery & Market in Montrose, an old-fashioned Coca-Cola sign and plastic tablecloths underscore the divey atmosphere, and there are hoards of people trying to find an open picnic table. Inside, you'll find the ultimate badge of honor for a place that specializes in burgers and sandwiches: a signed Guy Fieri poster from Lankford's appearance on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives." Greasy spoon lovers will adore this place and its no-fuss menu, which serves everything from classic cheeseburgers to a Grim Burger, featuring mac 'n' cheese, jalapeños, bacon, and a sunny-side-up fried egg." - Charu Suri, Diana Oates
