The best takeout restaurant in every state, according to Yelp
You may be relying on takeout a little more than usual, so why not try the best of the best?
Dia De Los Takos
During these trying times, it's more important than ever to support as many local restaurants and businesses as possible.
According to a report by Business Insider , restaurants are among the hardest-hit industries amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. According to the National Restaurant Association, 30,000 restaurants have already closed, and roughly 110,000 restaurants nationwide are expected to close permanently in the next month.
Some businesses, however, are still able to serve customers by offering takeout. Business Insider consulted Yelp to determine the highest-rated restaurants and food spots offering takeout in each state.

Yelp identified businesses in the restaurant category then ranked those spots using a number of factors, including the total volume and ratings of reviews between January 1, 2019, and March 27, 2020. When available, all businesses on this list had a passing health score or a score greater than a B/80.
Yelp also put together its own collections of restaurants offering takeout and/or delivery across 40 states and 100 metro areas, so there are plenty more restaurants to support.
Cuisines on this list range from pizza to sandwiches, Thai food to sushi, but all were lauded as nothing less than amazing by customers. Here are the best takeout places in every state.
Business hours, as well as takeout and delivery availability, may be affected by the ongoing development of COVID-19 advisories. Before visiting or placing a takeout or delivery order, please contact the business directly for updated hours and availability.
