On its 20th year, the annual Top of the Town, this time edited by Daliah Singer, brings the editorial picks for each category in the print version and additional choices voted by readers online.

In the dining category, the editors highlighted, among others, Jax Fish House and Oyster Bar for the best seafood dish, Amerigo Delicatus for Best Restaurant for Kids, the Inventing Room for Best Dessert, and newcomer Glaze Baum Cake Shoppe for Best Bakery.
