The 100 Best Restaurants in 2019, According to OpenTable

It was a strong year for West Coast restaurants, according to OpenTable’s recently released list of the 100 best restaurants in the U.S. in 2019. The Golden State housed nearly a quarter of the total list with outposts up and down the coast, including Acquerello, Benu, and Birdsong in San Francisco, all the way down Highway 1 to The Dock in Newport Beach and Hachi in Carson, California.

who's who?The Most Influential Food People of the Past DecadeThe annuals list, generated from diner reviews collected from the popular restaurant booking platform between Oct. 1, 2018 and Sept. 30, 2019, featured 22 total restaurants from California, while New York, Pennsylvania, and Florida tied for second place with seven restaurants each making the cut.

American and Italian cuisines were represented most-heavily with favorites like Chicago’s The Girl & The Goat and New York’s Atera landing in the top 100, but French food made a strong showing with representation in all corners of the country from Cafe Provence in Prairie, Kansas, to Boston’s Brassica Kitchen.

To qualify for the top 100, each restaurant had to have been part of the OpenTable platform for the past 12 consecutive months with a minimum overall rating and a minimum number of qualifying reviews for consideration. From there, they were sorted and ranked according to data points, like overall diner rating, total number of reviews, and regional overall rating.
