“eskca” derives from the Latin word “esca”, roughly meaning “food”. And that’s what we are all about – finding the best restaurants in the country. Our flagship journalistic venture is our Best Restaurants series, and our mission is to not only give readers access to the best places to eat wherever they go, but also to spotlight eateries that often go unnoticed despite having a stellar record.

We are always refining our methodology, but our current one can be found below:

In doing our research, we consider several factors including but not limited to:

• Consistently high level of food quality
• Consistently high level of customer service 
• Restaurant traction with consumers
• Competitive landscape
• Quality of restaurant public relations
