La Liste recently unveiled its list of the 'Top 1000 Restaurants 2025', which features establishments across the world. The French guide is known to assign calculated scores/ratings rather than assigning single ranks on a list. As a result, multiple restaurants may have the same score and share the same 'ranking.' La Liste's approach is thus quite different as compared to organisations like the Michelin Guide and the World's 50 Best. This year, nine restaurants around the globe got the topmost ranking of 99.5, according to La Liste. Hence, they have been named the best in the world for 2025. They are as follows:
The Best Restaurants In The World For 2025, As Per La Liste
- Cheval Blanc by Peter Knogl, Switzerland
- Guy Savoy, France
- L'Enclume - Simon Rogan, UK
- La Vague d'Or - Le Cheval Blanc, France
- Le Bernardin, USA
- Lung King Heen, Hong Kong
- Matsukawa, Japan
- Schwarzwaldstube, Germany

How Are The Scores Calculated?
La Liste first creates an enormous database that includes reviews of the top restaurants and hotels in the world by hundreds of guidebooks and "trusted publications". The website explains how each review score is standardised by a specific process. It states that "thousands of chefs" are asked about local guidebooks and each guidebook is accordingly assigned a "trustworthiness index". La Liste then calculates an average of all standardised review scores for each establishment, weighted by each source's trustworthiness index. Finally, it integrates online customer reviews, which are given a 10% weight in the final "La Liste score". Click here to learn more about the method.
