WORLD’S BEST RESTAURANT for 2025 revealed – CDMX in 3d place
It looks like Lima is going to be welcoming a lot of fine-dining fans in the coming months.
Two restaurants in the Peruvian capital landed in the top 10 on the 2025 list of the “World’s 50 Best Restaurants,” including the coveted number one spot.
The awards — considered the Oscars of innovative fine dining — were handed out at a ceremony in Turin, Italy on Thursday night, with Lima’s Maido walking away with the top prize.
Ranked number five on last year’s list, it’s owned and run by chef Mitsuharu “Micha” Tsumura.
Maido serves what’s known as Nikkei cuisine, “blending meticulous Japanese techniques with vibrant Peruvian ingredients to create a dining experience that is both culturally rich and innovatively modern” according to the 50 Best organization.
“This is going to be 16 years of Maido,” said Tsumura while accepting the award.
“I think gastronomy — food and hospitality — can do amazing things. They can make dreams come true.”
Coming in second was Asador Etxebarri in Atxondo, Spain, while Mexico City’s Quintonil snagged third place, followed by Diverxo in Madrid (No.4) and Copenhagen’s Alchemist rounding out the top five.
The top 50
The annual list is compiled based on the votes of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants Academy, which is made up of more than 1,100 international restaurant industry experts including food writers and chefs, in 28 regions around the world.
Restaurants can only win the top prize once, after which they’re entered into a separate “Best of the Best” program.
Members of that elite group include Geranium and Noma in Copenhagen, as well as New York’s Eleven Madison Park, The Fat Duck near London, Osteria Francescana in Modena, Italy, Mirazur in Menton, France and Central of Lima. Last year’s “50 Best Restaurants” winner, Barcelona’s Disfrutar, is also now on that list.
