Merci leads the pack — a James Beard Finalist and the only Delicious in the neighborhood. The other four land at Damn Good: 167 Raw Oyster Bar, Basic Kitchen, Costa Charleston, and Lowland, which carries a Michelin Selected nod of its own. No Two Stars, no Bibs, just a small neighborhood putting up a consistent record. Five for five is a good ratio.
