I look forward to annual lists like this, Esquire's Best New Restaurants of the Year. Sure, I never go to 99.5 of them (OK, probably more like 100% of them), but I like reading about new places that have opened, what various chefs around the country are doing, and I'm intrigued when there are places around Boston mentioned. I just gotta get off my ass and visit some of them.This year's list includes two Boston restaurants, Om and Sorellina. Other new spots making the grade including A Voce (NYC), Ecco (Atlanta), Acadiana (Washington, D.C.), Country (NYC), Proof On Main (Louisville, KY), Guy Savoy (Las Vegas), and Cut (Los Angeles), which was also named The Restaurant of the Year. There are also a few other categories, including Chef of the Year, Best New Design, and Four Chefs To Watch.
Take a look at the list and let us know which restaurants you'd add to the list. Make sure you name the city and why it's so good.

There is this one Japanese Restaurant in New York that I have been going to for years. But that was when I was still living in New York. It's located somewhere in midtown Manhattan. I think 46th and Madison Avenue or 5th. I forgot! And I also forgot the name of the restaurant. I shouldn't have brought it up. But the food is so good! Especially their shrimp tempura and chicken teriyaki. I still can't believe I forgot the name of that restaurant. :(
