"Once heralded as the most “Instagrammable restaurant in the known universe,” Destroyer, opened by chef Jordan Kahn in 2016, continues to lure in diners who want to try its somewhat more cerebral takes on all-day fare, like persimmon French toast with toasted birch leaf syrup, smoked fish with savory onion granola, and sweet corn porridge with a poached egg and delicately crisped chicken skin. A sandwich and salad here are not just a sandwich and salad, so keep your phones poised as the more unexpected elements of a dish reveal themselves. A cup of coffee and a pastry to go are fine moves, too." - Matthew Kang, Eater Staff
