"The dive bar DeLux is a local legend among South End residents, known for its better-than-expected food, which cooks crank out of a postage stamp-sized kitchen. The cheeseburger ($19) is a prime example: It includes a thick beef burger, sharp cheddar, buttery Bibb lettuce, and a squirt of tangy manzanilla olive aioli, with a heap of thick-cut fries on the side. It’s a pretty straightforward rendition that sings with high-grade ingredients and sharp execution. Insider tip: DeLux is cash only and first come, first served, so plan accordingly." - Erika Adams
