There are restaurant awards and then there are the Good Food Guide Awards, recognising the very best restaurants, cafes, bars and pubs across Australia. Since 1984, the annual guide celebrates the cream of the crop, and is a compilation of almost 500 independent reviews visited by the team of critics over the past six months.
We extend a very big congratulations to our OpenTable restaurant partners who were recognised with a Good Food Guide Award for 2025. Without further ado, here are the awardees…
