Brooklyn has no shortage of iconic eats, but one beloved comfort food joint just got the ultimate foodie shoutout from none other than Guy Fieri himself. 🙌 Food Network recently rounded up standout restaurants from all **50 states** that have been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives over the show’s nearly 20-year run — and for New York, the spotlight went straight to Pies ‘n’ Thighs in Williamsburg.

The bold move delivered juicy, flavorful chicken that he couldn’t stop raving about. Of course, the name says it all — you can’t leave without sampling the pies . Fan favorites include Banana Cream, Bourbon Pecan, and Sour Cherry , making it a comfort food lover’s dream from start to finish. Add in sides like mac and cheese, collard greens, and hush puppies , and you’ve basically stepped into Brooklyn’s very own version of Flavortown. Food Network’s full list highlights one *Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives* favorite from every corner of the U.S., from seafood shacks in Maine to BBQ pit stops in Texas.
