Ontario dominates the top 100 'most beloved' restaurants in Canada for 2022
Nearly 50 Ontario restaurants cracked this top 100 list for the best restaurants in Canada this year.
OpenTable released its list on Wednesday, and it ranked all of the restaurants by combing through more than one million restaurant reviews from verified diners on the website from Oct. 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2022.
From there, restaurants were organized by overall diner rating, “user klout”, number of reviews, and regional overall rating, among other things.
“We’re seeing a strong interest in a variety of dining establishments and experiences this year, and strong representation from traditional continental to diverse international cuisines,” OpenTable Canada County Director, Matt Davis, said in a release.
In total, 49 eateries from the province made the list this year, with 32 being from Toronto alone. Newly-minted Michelin-star restaurants Osteria Giulia and Don Alfonso 1890 also made the list for the city.
