End-of-year best-of lists may be precious to critics, but the people have also spoken on the restaurants that kept them coming back in 2019. Data may not always equate to taste, but OpenTable’s frequently booked and highly rated restaurants are popular for a reason.
“Whether a restaurant has received national accolades or is built on local fanfare, our Top 100 reflects diners’ favorite culinary experiences across the country,” Andrea Johnston, COO at OpenTable, said in a news release. “What ultimately ties these restaurants together is their excellent hospitality paired with incredible dishes, which is why diners are applauding them with rave reviews.”
