We’ve chosen the city’s best restaurants and wine bars based on our experiences throughout 2025—not as a ranking, but as a selection of places we fell in love with, for one reason or for many.
What ultimately sets these places apart is the experience as a whole: a great meal doesn’t count for much if the wine program is erratic, the staff is rude, or the service takes ages to do its job.
These are the restaurants and wine bars that delivered the most consistent experiences for us—across food, wine, service, and everything in between.
