It\u2019s a classic, every autumn for over 10 years, we celebrate excellence in gastronomy with Canada\u2019s Best New Restaurants, which seems to have changed its name to Air Canada\u2019s Best New Restaurants, celebrating new establishments showcasing the art of the table from coast to coast. While the Michelin guide has been around for a few years now, with the 2024 edition coming to Qu\u00e9bec in 2025<\/a>, this program celebrating the country\u2019s distinctive culinary scene in a different way through its iconic program is Canada\u2019s longest-running restaurant ranking. Let\u2019s take a look at Air Canada\u2019s Best New Restaurants 2024 long list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 30 finalists for Air Canada Best New Restaurants 2024 long list<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than 30 finalists make up this long list of establishments combining quality, finesse and creativity in both cuisine and service. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to shine a light on Canada\u2019s emerging culinary talent through Air Canada\u2019s annual Best New Restaurants list,\u201d said Andy Shibata, Vice President, Brand, Air Canada. \u201cFood is an important part of culture and heritage, and by sharing the very best of Canada\u2019s creative culinary scene, we hope to inspire people to seek out great food experiences across our country. In doing so, we are proud to celebrate the best of Canadian talent and support the vitality of Canada\u2019s restaurant and hospitality sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How are establishments chosen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Air Canada Best New Restaurants 2024 competition, whose finalists you\u2019ll find below, is the only pan-Canadian restaurant ranking to involve a single anonymous food critic, whose mission is to taste dishes in establishments across Canada. This person discreetly conducts a month-long gourmet marathon in search of the country\u2019s most outstanding new restaurants, based on the recommendations of our national committee of restaurant experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Air Canada\u2019s Best New Restaurants 2024 celebrate the most innovative restaurants opening across the country between late spring 2023 and May 31, 2024, offering outstanding experiences through the quality of their products, service and culinary creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s the long list of finalists in the Air Canada Best New Restaurants 2024 competition. Of course, we have a soft spot for Sabayon, the tiny restaurant run by the talented couple Patrice Demers and Marie-Jos\u00e9e Beaudoin, who are also the restaurant only two employees. It would be hard to miss Charles-Antoine Cr\u00eate and Cheryl Johnson\u2019s latest project. It\u2019s really interesting to see lesser-known provinces like Manitoba and Saskatchewan joining the fray. I hope that in the years to come, there will be a finalist restaurant in at least every province and territory, showcasing the diversity of the culinary arts across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
