25) Interstate Barbecue
Memphis Airport, Gate B14 – 33 reviews, 4.2 stars
The Quick Summary: “I wasn’t planning on eating in the airport but the smell of this place was killing me.” Quick service, good prices, and great old fashioned Memphis BBQ. Extremely generous with the sauce, this is southern hospitality at its best.
What the flyers are saying: BBQ Spaghetti. Sounds a little strange, but it’s a specialty of this place and you have to try it.
Best tip: don’t neglect the sides! Potato salad and cole slaw are a must
24) Ufood Grill
Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, Gate B8 – 21 reviews, 4.6 stars
The Quick Summary: Tofu, bison burger, unfries (baked fries), steamed brocolli, egg white breakfast burrito, acai smoothie. Not exactly what you expect to see at an airport restaurant but it all tastes good here! Allergies? Not a problem as everything is clearly marked with ingredients.
What the flyers are saying: “safe, tasty, and healthy food options for everyone.”
Best tip: calories are listed so you can be sure you are making the best selection for you
23) Shapiro’s Delicatessen
Indianapolis Airport, Gate B14 – 28 reviews, 4.5 stars
The Quick Summary: Although tinier than its downtown location, this place still packs all the great tastes into the sandwiches. As one New Yorker said, he was extremely reluctant to try the Rueben but glad he did, as he would “recommend it absolutely.”
What the flyers are saying: “the best Jewish Deli in the Midwest”
Best tip: must get it on rye, “seeing them hand-slice fresh rye bread just made me smile.”
