Relive the '20s at this old-fashioned ice cream parlor, complete with a soda counter and Italian comfort food. Guy enjoyed the fan favorite: homemade butter pecan ice cream topped with whipped cream and a side of butterscotch. For a filling meal, order the mozzarella sticks and cheesy pasta Asiago.

With meatballs larger than your standard league baseball, Mulberry Restaurant knows a thing or two about home-run meals. Guy didn't leave hungry with their filling lobster ravioli, hand-stuffed peppers and mountain-high lasagna packed edge to edge with sausage, chicken and creamy Parmesan ricotta.

In Fort Greene Brooklyn, The Smoke Joint is smoking up some seriously mouth-watering, succulent, fall off the bone 'cue. The short ribs are Brontosaurus-sized, and the Buffalo wings are funkified by smoking them first. It's a veritable melting pot of a barbecue joint, much like the city it's in.

Since 1922, this multigenerational old-school Italian deli in Brooklyn has been a local staple. Guy adored the tender steak pizzaiola with fresh mozzarella in the Sinatra Special. He called the thinly sliced roast beef, fried eggplant and mozzarella sandwich ridiculous and the real deal.

The three innovative female chefs that run this Brooklyn establishment are pumping out classic American cuisine with a Southern spin. Guy loved the savory buckwheat waffles and fried chicken, which were light and crisp. He also devoured the addictive Pecan Crunch Donut coated with homemade toffee.

Triple D meets double D — Donnie D'Alessio, the chef at Queens Comfort. Guy raves about the Down by Law sandwich packed with thin slices of smoked chicken topped with bacon jam, cheddar, chipotle sauce and lettuce. Diners also love snacking on spicy mac-and-cheese balls, aka Atomic Fireballs.

Join host Guy Fieri, of Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, at Earl's Drive-In in Chaffee, NY, a 42-year-old restaurant next to a farm, where they're serving old school American classics.

Owner Adam Gold is still serving up waffles and blasting tunes just like he did at his college parties. Guy savored the "sweet and crispy" fried chicken and waffles with hot sauce syrup and devoured the stuffing waffle with smoked turkey, cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes.

The authentic home-style Polish comfort food and family atmosphere found at this cafe causes some to feel that they are actually in Poland. The crispy potato pancakes with gravy solicited an "Mmm" from Guy as he devoured the dish. Locals recommend the delicious pierogis and the savory kielbasa.

At this top-of-the-line Irish Pub, Chef Damien Brownlow serves up pub food with a twist. Guy loved the Reuben fritters because of their creamy "melt-in-your-mouth" flavor and the accompanying honey mustard horseradish. He also liked the Irish meatloaf with cabbage cream sauce and champ potatoes.

Whether you're looking for some Sunday brunch or a Sunday brew, this joint is just for you. Guy enjoyed the sweet fire fajitas with andouille sausage and marinated onions and peppers topped with cheddar Jack cheese. Diners enjoy drinking the craft beer with a side of sweet potato fries.

A few years ago, auto shop owner Fred Donnelly took up barbecue as a hobby. Then he started selling it from a trailer outside his Queens shop. Soon he was serving 150 lunches a day at MOgridder's BBQ. Dig into Fred's ribs and the brisket, which Guy said would ''challenge any good Texas brisket.''

For a taste of Philly in North Carolina, head to Copper Penny where owner Brian Cadwallader is serving up inventive pub food. The 109 Chestnut Chicken Sandwich is a take on a chicken Philly cheesesteak. It is served with their famous onion rings. “Keep those onion rings away from me,” Guy said after he couldn’t stop eating them, “I never want to see them again.”

This breakfast-brunch spot is serving up classic Southern flavors all day long. From shrimp and grits to chicken and waffles (and everything in between), Cast Iron Kitchen has a menu to satisfy any appetite. Guy suggests ordering the Not My Momma's Meatloaf, which is comfort food at its finest.

Open for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, Sweet n Savory Cafe is a must-try option while passing through Wilmington.
