Esperia Grill – The Brighton restaurant has several years’ worth of Best of Boston awards under its belt, but we’d argue it still doesn’t get the credit it deserves. Among other reasons, the value is incredible: The place does not skimp on portion sizes, and its entrées—nearly all of which are twenty bucks or less—come with two hot sides and a Greek salad. Our pick? Mousaka or keftedes meatballs, paired with herb-laden roasted potatoes and sweet corn. Even if you don’t order some delicious baklava for dessert, you’ll wind up with enough food for tomorrow’s-lunch leftovers.
