Shortlist for the 2014 FOOD&WINE Magazine Restaurant of the Year Awards

The FOOD&WINE Magazine Restaurant of the Year Awards, now in its 14th year, are considered one of the most prestigious and authoritative culinary awards in the Irish calendar. Recognising the best Irish restaurants and culinary talent, diners from all over Ireland were invited to nominate their favourite restaurants and chefs.
The top entries went forward for deliberation by a national culinary panel of judges made up of industry experts and national food critics. After much deliberation on each category, each judge voted in secret for their top 10 in each category, including the top 10 restaurants and chefs from all four provinces, with Dublin treated separately.


The national awards for Overall Best Chef and Overall Best Restaurant were put through a further judging process, where the entire judging panel and all previous panel members voted electronically and in private. 

All of the regional and national winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on 17 August. In addition to Best Chef and Best Restaurant, awards will also be presented for Best Sommelier, Best Service, Best World Cuisine and Best Wine Experience.



 “This year, we are very excited to recognise emerging chefs and restaurateurs who have been striving for excellence over the last year and are now getting the accolades they deserve. Of course, established restaurants that continue to innovate, yet maintain the same standards of excellence, will always be rewarded. It is also encouraging to see a significant growth in quality, regional eateries across the country this year, which provided plenty of fodder for debate during the judging process,” commented Miriam Atkins, editor of FOOD&WINE Magazine.
