13 Essential New Haven Restaurants
"A block off the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail, between art center NXTHVN and the Q House community center on the corner of Dixwell and Henry, chef DeAri Allick cooks lamb chops with smashed potatoes and crispy steak-and-cheese egg rolls served with DND sauce, his seafood-based, umami-rich signature. An anti-violence advocate and community organizer, Allick runs his casual restaurant down the street from Hillhouse High, where he played basketball as a teen. Dope N Delicious serves as a gathering spot where neighbors enjoy multiple meals a day and events draw exuberant crowds." - Stasia Brewczynski
