LONDON —North America’s 50 Best Restaurants, a new awards program highlighting top dining destinations across Canada, the U.S. and parts of the Caribbean, will debut in 2025. North America’s 50 Best Restaurants, sponsored by S.Pellegrino & Acqua Panna, will be the only comprehensive ranking of its kind for the region.
“North America has a thriving and diverse restaurant scene. We want to honour restaurants across the region and inspire food-lovers to seek new experiences,” says William Drew, director of Content for North America’s 50 Best Restaurants. “We have become the international market leader in expert-curated restaurants, bars and hotels lists. Launching North America’s 50 Best Restaurants gives dedicated attention to the region’s restaurants and their teams. The list will celebrate talent and provide a credible guide for diners.”
The ranking reflects the best dining experiences from 300 expert voters including chefs, restaurateurs, journalists, educators and gourmets. Voters remain anonymous and are recruited by Academy Chairs across eight sub-regions: Caribbean (excluding Cuba and Dominican Republic); U.S. Northeast; U.S. South; U.S. Midwest; U.S. West; Canada East; Canada Mid-East; and Canada West. Mexico, Cuba and the Dominican Republic remain part of Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants.
The first list will be unveiled at an awards ceremony later this year, the date and location of which will be announced in due course.
