EDITOR'S CHOICE!!
Stoddard's

I would go back just for the bread alone. It was freshly baked, doughy and moist, with a slight rosemary flavor.
You take a bite and you have to keep going. You stop all conversation. You ask for another serving. You savor every mouthful. You start hoping your food will arrive soon because you don't want to have to ask for a third helping of bread. But you do, and when your entree arrives you'd rather be eating the free bread than your twenty dollar entree. Yes, it's that good.
However, it narrowly misses the perfect score because although it was served slightly warm, I felt like it could have been just a little warmer to give it that true "fresh out of the oven" feel. Also, I thought the crust was a little too thin and flaky with room for improvement. A couple of minor imperfections but a heavenly addiction nonetheless. You have to try this!
Overall Score: 9.5
