Best Greasy Spoon
South Street Diner

There’s just something about scoffing down a grease-laden plate of fries after a night of heavy drinking that makes you think “America.” And if that feeling could morph itself into the form of a sweet little restaurant, it’d look exactly like the SOUTH STREET DINER. Last year’s pick for the best late-night spot in Boston (true, there are few to choose from, but that’s still quite a feat considering the food-snob city we live in), South Street serves up quintessentially American fare until the wee hours. The burgers are juicy, the frappes extra-thick, and the salad options few. Precisely the way true diner grub should be.
