The food and dining website compiled the list showing the best brunch eatery in every state by doing a deep dive into review sites. It specifically looked for spots that don’t just serve the best traditional food but also venture outside the box.

“These restaurants pay just as much attention to their brunch menu as their dinner menu, and they serve it all in a lively space with just the right amount of celebratory fanfare,” authors of the Daily Meal list wrote. “If you live near any of these spectacular spots, set aside a leisurely Sunday afternoon and treat yourself.”

The Rittenhouse is one of Pennsylvania’s most luxurious hotels, perched in a perfect location overlooking Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square. Its Sunday all-you-can-eat brunch buffet, served at its fine-dining gem, Lacroix, has more than 50 offerings, each of them demonstrating some serious attention to detail and culinary know-how. The familiar breakfast dishes are all there, but everything’s kicked up a few notches. Standouts include foie gras s’mores; buttermilk fried chicken with swiss chard and honey; lamb shoulder with carrot cavatelli and carrot pesto; Vietnamese beef broth with quail egg; buttermilk biscuits with pork roll, piperade and comte; and shrimp cake with orange marmalade. At the carving station, you’ll find Scottish salmon with pastrami spice; sausage made from diver scallops; porchetta with orange glaze; brisket with bearnaise and sorrel; and dijon rosemary-crusted lamb leg.

Lacroix is located in The Rittenhouse at 210 W. Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia.
