Nothing looks amazing, and lots of fonts work more or less fine. There's no best right now, but I tend to stick with one of several Adobe fonts that suit my general preferences well.
I've never been able to get Minion to look pleasant to my eye, no matter what I do. Perhaps it's just easier to remember what it should look like because it's so ubiquitous. I've had far better luck with Arno Pro (SmText), Garamond Premier Pro (Caption), and Chaparral Pro (Caption). I've listed them in other threads, along with some others that I've found usable, but those three are my bread and butter.
In any event, the font choice itself is not the only important factor. Leading in particular needs to be considered, along with kerning and word spacing.
