2025 Wine Spectator Restaurant Award Winners Revealed

June 25, 2025

This year, restaurants seem to be looking back to the classics, as wine list trends reflect the best of the past—whether that means featuring more Old World or Old World–style wines, showcasing older vintages or including wines made from old-vine sites and historical, nearly extinct grape varieties.

More than 3,800 restaurants have earned Restaurant Awards from Wine Spectator in 2025. This year’s winning restaurants hail from all 50 states and more than 80 countries and territories, including a new country this year: Jordan. The awards are given across three categories: Award of Excellence, Best of Award of Excellence and Grand Award. Wine Spectator has the full story.
