The organization behind these rankings, 101 Best Steak Restaurants, has a global list it releases each year in addition to regional lists—much like World’s 50 Best Restaurants and 50 Top Pizza. It was founded in London in 2018 and has 21 anonymous inspectors on five continents who evaluate the steakhouses (sorry, steak restaurants) annually. And the inspectors evaluate dining destinations on a series of nine criteria including quality of meat, selection of cuts, service staff’s expertise in beef, wine program, design, and more. The full list below reveals the restaurants this group thinks really has the chops.
