David (Johnny C.) grew up eating casseroles—and since they reminded him of having a meal with family and friends, he made it his goal to create a business that offered the same comforts. Johnny Casserole began as a family-size delivery service, then grew into a food truck, and is now a sit-down restaurant—Johnny C's—in Chicago. On the menu, you'll always find Chicken Pot Pie, Shepherd's Pie and Mac & Cheese are always on the menu, but you'll see new casseroles based on the season or holiday.

Nothing screams comfort like the classic tomato soup and grilled cheese, a.k.a Tom + Chee.

Nearly a year later, Tom + Chee opened its first real restaurant and has been packed every day since. Classic grilled cheeses and some surprising ones like the Grilled Cheese Donut, are over-the-top.

Okay, technically lobster shacks aren't crazy, but Luke Holden has a lobster obsession that few others can match. Luke hails from Cape Elizabeth, Maine where he found his passion for lobstering during the summers. When he moved to New York, he found his favorite food swimming in mayo and thinned with celery, so he set out on a mission to deliver the best quality lobster roll in town at Luke's Lobster. The Lobster Rolls contain meat from 5 or 6 lobster claws—about a quarter of a pound—making this the meatiest roll you'll ever find. You'll find 14 different locations from Washington, D.C., to New York City.
