Best New Restaurant is an American reality competition series on Bravo that premiered on January 21, 2015.[1] The show is based on British television series Ramsay's Best Restaurant created by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.[2][3]

The show features a celebrity chef Tom Colicchio, along with Maggie Nemser and Jeffrey Zurofsky, who bring sixteen new restaurants against each other in a series of challenges in order to determine which one of them would be crowned as the best.[4] The challenges include the dishes that are served, the restaurant's decor and the overall concept.[5]

Reception

The show has been very well received by critics.[10] Christina Chaey of Bon Appétit accented that Best New Restaurant is different from other cooking shows because it does not focus entirely on food, but includes the quality of service and hospitality as well.[11] Vicki Hyman of The Star-Ledger gave the show a B, praising the show's different approach to “reward the restaurant that consistently fulfills its mission, regardless of cuisine or price point,” also distinguishing judges’ personalities as "genuine, not pumped-up-for-the cameras.”[12] Adam Smith of Boston Herald noted that even though the show seems similar to those that have come before it but also manages to stand out for not infilling the show with drama by saying that "the knives are used for cooking and not stabbing each other in the back."[13]
