Tripadvisor’s 2022 Dining Directory: Top rated restaurants in Asia and around the world 

Akira Back - Bangkok, Thailand.

Travellers’ Choice Awards reveal world’s most popular restaurants, plus hidden gems to try. 14 Restaurants in Asia make it to the World’s Best Lists.

SINGAPORE – Tripadvisor announced the next in its community-powered Travellers’ Choice Awards series: the 2022 Best of the Best Restaurants. Here to help everyone discover all the must-visit restaurants when travelling, Tripadvisor is sharing the top-rated spots across the globe, inclusive of six different subcategories of restaurant types.

Award-winning restaurants this year spanned six continents and 51 countries. Global labour challenges and ongoing COVID-19 restrictions continued to limit dine-in capacity in some markets – for instance, some Asian nations were closed to international tourists for nearly the entire data evaluation period. Still, gourmands the world over savoured dining out, leaving millions of reviews on Tripadvisor chronicling their experiences.

“Dining out is an internationally beloved pastime: for many restaurant-goers, it’s frequenting their favourite neighbourhood eatery and for others, it’s snagging a table at a top-rated restaurant on vacation. More than half of consumers in a recent survey* told us that food is the most exciting component of their trip,” said Lauren Murphy, Vice President, GM of Hospitality Solutions at Tripadvisor. “Like searching through a big menu for the perfect meal, recommendations can be helpful in decision making, and our community’s guidance makes choosing from the wide array of restaurants easier. Tripadvisor’s Best of the Best Awards, decided by people who visited and reviewed these places in the past year, offers authentic recommendations for the best places to eat no matter the occasion!”

Diners looking to celebrate a special occasion or splurge on an elegant night out should look no further than the Best of the Best Fine Dining winners. The No. 1 Fine Dining Restaurant in the world for 2022 is The Old Stamp House Restaurant in Ambleside, United Kingdom. Taking the No. 1 spot for the second consecutive year, Old Stamp House, run by two brothers, is revered for its intimate, unique setting and tasting menu.
