  4. Rank 5. Rita

    New Zealand

    A snug cottage in Aro Valley where the chef makes every decision for you, serving a three-course set menu that changes with each service. Named after the chef's grandmother, it has that energy. There's no agonizing over the menu, just whatever's good that day, often built around local kingfish or duck. Two sittings a night, and the kind of place where the booking fills up long before you thought to look.
