The North America’s 50 Best Restaurants 2025 List is Out

On September 25, 2025 at Wynn Las Vegas, the inaugural North America’s 50 Best Restaurants list debuted with Atomix (New York) crowned No. 1. Junghyun “JP” and Ellia Park’s intimate, design-driven counter marries Korean flavours with meticulous technique and hospitality, setting the tone for a ranking that celebrates both heritage and innovation across the continent.

Canada made a powerful showing — Mon Lapin (Montreal) landed at No. 2, Restaurant Pearl Morissette (Lincoln, ON) at No. 3 and Tanière3 (Québec City) at No. 5 — while the broader lineup highlights a vibrant mix of tasting-menu temples, neighbourhood gems and destination dining from the U.S. and the Caribbean. Pictured above? Le Violon in Montreal, No. 29 on the list, where Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau were spotted having dinner this past July.
