NEEDHAM, Mass., July 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today,
Tripadvisor® announced the winners of its 2021
Travelers' Choice® "Best of the Best" Restaurants
awards, with five new categories of must-visit restaurants no
matter where you are or what you crave, based on traveler reviews
of people who have dined there before. From favorite Fine
Dining establishments for the more discerning taste buds and
the Best Brunch Spots to fill up on avo toast and mimosas,
to the Hottest New Restaurants and Best Vegan Spots
serving up some of the tastiest plant-based grub. These
award-winning restaurants have something to suit every type of
palate.
The title of U.S. No. 1 Fine Dining restaurant goes to
the Inn at Little Washington in Washington, Va. This intimate restaurant
boasts an award-winning 14,000 bottle wine cellar (what's not to
love about that?!) and serves up classic French cuisine including
dishes such as carpaccio of herb-crusted Elysian Fields baby lamb loin with caesar
salad ice cream and coconut sorbet with passionfruit and ginger
granité.
If quality food on the go is what you're after, the Quick
Bites category (previously named Fast Casual) fits the brief
and this year it's New York City's
Bleecker Street Pizza topping the
list. This much-hyped pizza joint knows a thing or two about
serving up a decent slice.
New this year, the Picture-Perfect Restaurants category
celebrates those places that have a serious wow factor, not just
for the food, but the restaurant setting as well. These stunning
spots are worth a thousand selfies and it's not surprising to see
why Koral Restaurant in Nusa Dua,
Bali has been crowned world No. 1.
At this epic aquarium restaurant, you'll feel as though you're
dining underwater as tropical fish swim around and above you and a
hypnotic soundtrack plays to give the full below the waves
experience.
If you're looking to set the mood with a romantic dinner, the
Date Night category - another newbie for 2021 - has you
covered. Topping the U.S. list is The Silver Fork in Manchester, Vt. Located in the picturesque
Manchester Village, The
Silver Fork is housed within the
historic building which was once the Mark Skinner Library. This
quaint restaurant is run by a husband and wife team and serves up
an eclectic mix of cuisines from around the world including goat
cheese soufflé with chutney and homemade melba toast and mixed
paella for two.
"It's no secret that the restaurant industry has taken a hit
over the past year or so, but the good news is that would-be diners
all over the world are hungrier than ever to dine out again," said
Martin Verdon-Roe, general manager
of Hospitality Solutions at Tripadvisor. "There is so much good out
there to explore this summer and beyond and no matter what you're
craving, the Best of the Best Restaurants Awards is on hand to
serve as a menu of options to satisfy your appetite."
Below you'll find the No. 1 restaurants in the U.S. and the
world across the eight award subcategories. The full list of
winners can be found here.
