The only required qualification for making this list was that I had to have eaten at the restaurant more than once, though most I’ve eaten at a number of times. (After I visit Eleven Madison Park a second time, it’ll likely be added immediately!)
As you might notice, it’s definitely about more than the food. And I was kind of surprised at how many Japanese restaurants made the list.
Here it goes:
- Le Bernardin
- Jean-Georges
- Babbo
- Grand Sichuan
- Mercadito
- Lupa
- Sushi Yasuda
- Tsukushi
- Sake Bar Hagi
- Yakitori Totto
