Favorite? anywhere, probably Omega’s in Niles, IL. Here in Concord, hmmm, either Jack’s in PH or Chopan Kabob on Monument (best fish dish -tandoori fish- I have ever had).
I like Jack’s in PH also, many selections, the Italian Mac n Cheese is great(split it with someone) the bartenders are crazy busy but are two of the very best. Fiores in Concord also is very good(lamb shank cannot be beat). Use to go to Moresi’s chophouse in Clayton but it has turned into just soso on meals, plus, the owner is a simp( was a huge Biden supporter). And I quote, “ he sure was on point”. This was on day after the Trump/Biden debate
We really don’t have a favorite, and don’t eat out much.
It’s more like, …. what sounds tasty to eat if we’re out and about.
More likely a place that cooks food I normally have not mastered the flavors on.

We ate at Gadsby’s in VA our recent trip to DC. Went because it was a building from the 1770s and we just wanted to experience at least the building from the time of our Founding. Needless to say, it was fan-tas-tic. I will have to look at Le Diplomat for the next time I go.

Hotel Mac in Point Richmond, but that was forty years ago.
Best glazed carrots I’ve ever had – I’ve tried to duplicate them, but I can’t come close. Maybe they used a pressure-cooker.

You can’t beat the Caprice Seafood and Steakhouse in Tiburon for the best abalone.
