You know you have a favorite restaurant when you keep coming back. Whether it's the must-try food, unbeatable prices, or wonderful atmosphere, these places have a unique draw for both locals and tourists.

If you're interested in finding that next restaurant, TripAdvisor can help. The website unveiled its Travelers' Choice awards for 2022, and one of these lists includes the best U.S. restaurants for "everyday eats." These eateries are defined as "great food that won’t break the bank." Reviewers and travelers chose the winners.

Out of the 25 entries on the list, three of them are in Florida! The first one mentioned landed at the No. 2 spot: Doc Ford's Rum Bar & Grille in Fort Myers Beach!

Doc Ford is known for serving delicious seafood dishes with Caribbean and South American flavors. As the full name suggests, it also has a wide array of rum for you to enjoy. Customers also flock here for the amazing location, which is St. Pete Pier.

Next is Il Pastaiolo, an Italian restaurant in Miami Beach. This spot prides itself on Neapolitan trattoria-style cuisine with a modern twist. You can look forward to gnocchi bolognese, seafood linguine, lobster ravioli, and much more.

Last and certainly not least is The Salty Crab Bar & Grill in Clearwater! Seafood is the name of the game at this popular restaurant, and there are many mouth-watering offerings, including crab boils, surf and turf, ahi tuna steak, and stuffed shrimp.
