✨Our 2022 Best New Restaurants list is finally here! ✨ We visited 105 restaurants, tasted over 315 dishes, dined all over the country, and narrowed those experiences down to the 15 best. Led by restaurant editor Hillary Dixler Canavan (@hillarydixlercanavan), we traveled in search of meals that impress and inspire, and these restaurants delivered. We consumed bucatini tossed in tom yum sauce and pizza topped with vibrant green chutney. These dishes aren't gimmicks — they're game-changers. This is the year that a bakery — not a bakery-plus-restaurant, not a bakery with a savory menu too, just a damn good bakery — can feel revolutionary, even when sticking to the classics. What binds these restaurants together, aside from having the full-throated endorsement of our staffers, is how each and every one is an utter original. These 15 restaurants represent the most exciting openings of the year. Swipe left to see the full list.
