NYC Is Home To 15 Of The Best Restaurants In The World, According To Tripadvisor Travelers

Each year, Tripadvisor awards travelers’ favorite destinations, hotels, restaurants, and things to do around the world in order to create their Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best list, and the 2025 iteration is here! Tripadvisor uses the list to shine a light on the restaurants that have captured the hearts (and stomachs) of diners who’ve experienced them firsthand, helping us decide whether or not a place is worth an exploration of our own! The awards are based on reviews and ratings collected over 12 months and are decided by us: real travelers from all over, sharing real opinions and stories. Tripadvisor writes: > The Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best title celebrates the highest level of excellence in travel. It’s awarded to those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over a 12-month period. Out of our 8 million listings, fewer than 1% achieve this milestone. And while we never doubted the fact that NYC is home to some of the best restaurants in the world, this ranking certainly confirms it! From fine dining to casual grab-and-go spots and everything in between, 15 NYC restaurants made the cut –many of which were featured on last year’s list as well!
