The Tabelog Award
The Tabelog Award is Tabelog’s original annual restaurant award, based not on the opinions of professional critics, but on evaluations by everyday diners.
Out of approximately 890,000 restaurants across Japan(as of December 2025), Tabelog users vote to select the winners of “Gold,” “Silver,” “Bronze,” and “Category” awards from the restaurants that received exceptionally high ratings in 2025.
Listening to ingredients. Refining technique.
Mastering flavor. Thoughts are carried into each dish, by those who create it.
This endless passion has shaped Japan into a nation of gastronomy.
“The Tabelog Award” is a stage where Japan’s proudest expressions of taste come together,
delivering the happiness of great food to all who love to eat.
Here, we pay tribute to these creators with our unwavering respect and admiration.
