Massachusetts Eatery Named Among The Best ‘Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives’ In US

Here's a very cool stat, Massachusetts residents: Were you aware of how many dining establishments in the Commonwealth have been featured on the hit TV show "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" hosted by this guy?:

Celebrity Chef Guy Fieri. Well, any guesses? I'll save you the torture and just give you the answer. 37!!! That's right. 37 different Massachusetts restaurants have been featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" over the past 17 years since the show began! There's even a website where you can check them all out.

Dining spots from all over the Bay State have been featured including cities like Boston, Peabody, Attleboro, Salem, Fall River, and Plymouth. However, only one eatery can be the best. The Favorite in Flavortown, you might say.

Recently, Delish came up with a list of the very best "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" in every state across the country. The best restaurant in Massachusetts is located in the town of Somerville. And the building it's housed in is not your typical building!

You'll be satisfied with whatever sandwich you select. Kelly's Diner is so proud of their sandwiches that they put up a sign:

Kelly's has a short, sweet, simple, delicious menu. One of those menus where you'll have to try everything once. And did I mention that Kelly's just looks super cool? Both inside...

There you have it. According to Delish, Kelly's Diner in Somerville is the BEST in Massachusetts. If you're ever in the neighborhood and you're craving diner food (which, in my case, is always) you may want to stop in. By the way, Kelly's Diner was the very first diner Guy Fieri ever visited on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives"!
