  6. Rank 877. KAMA

    Creative Mediterranean

    A stylish Mediterranean small-plates restaurant where the mezze menu is designed for mixing, matching, and ordering one more round before you've decided you're done. The room leans into cool lighting and a central bar that keeps things lively, and the cocktail list holds its own alongside the food. The crowd skews toward people who know how to split a bill twelve ways without drama.

  11. Servers in white jackets move through a room of crisp linens and glass chandeliers, which tells you everything about the register before you've opened the menu. This is a polished Italian dining room with a short, focused menu that runs from whipped ricotta bruschetta through gourmet pastas to lobster risotto and a pistachio-crusted lamb rack. The wine list leans Italian, and the cocktail program covers both the spirited and the sober.

  26. Directly across from the Four Seasons Centre, this polished Vietnamese restaurant fills its large dining room with booths, bar stools, and enough greenery to suggest someone actually tends it. The menu leans on traditional recipes, and the coconut curry, available with duck, chicken, or shrimp, gets most of the attention. The timing is convenient if you're catching a ballet and want something more interesting than a pre-show martini.

  37. Rank 877. The Joneses

    American

    A circular bar anchors the room at this casual American comfort spot in the thick of Toronto's financial district. The menu leans into familiar territory, pulled pork mac and cheese, braised short ribs, hearty vegetable casseroles, with enough tweaks to keep things interesting. Sofas and traditional tables share space with a screened patio when the season cooperates, which suits the after-work crowd just fine.

  47. The dough takes three days to make, which partly explains the line of rain-soaked Vancouverites camped under the East Broadway awning. This is a casual New York pizza joint doing three styles: classic New York, Sicilian, and Detroit. The thick, crispy-edged Detroit pies in particular have developed a following that shows no signs of thinning out, regardless of weather, which in Vancouver is really saying something.

  83. Rank 968. Paper Lantern

    Vietnamese Cocktail Bar

    Down a staircase beneath a Chinatown restaurant, red lanterns mark this below-street Vietnamese cocktail bar as something worth finding. The drinks lean tropical but take detours, like a Vietnamese iced coffee built with cold brew, condensed milk, and coconut. Small plates of bánh mì and shaken beef have a way of appearing at tables where nobody ordered food. It landed on Canada's 100 Best Bars list, which tracks, given how often people seem to lose track of time here.

  87. Hand-painted murals of Greek village scenes cover every wall of this family-run Greek restaurant in Burlington, which sets the tone before anyone's even opened the menu. The room runs big and the menu runs bigger, with stuffed grape leaves, flaming cheese, and mixed kebab platters in sizes calibrated for groups that showed up hungry. Save room for the baklava.

  90. Lobster and prawn rolls share the menu with house-made pastas and grilled fish, which tells you most of what you need to know about the register here. The Frederick is a casual all-day restaurant on Temperance Street that slides between power lunches and low-key dinners without visibly breaking a sweat. The room runs warm and contemporary, and the soft-serve sundae at the end lands like a small, deliberate joke about how seriously everyone else takes dessert.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
