World-renowned Italian media company, Gambero Rosso, completed a successful 2026 U.S. Tre Bicchieri Tour in late February and early March, drawing more than 3,000 wine, hospitality, and media trade professionals from across the U.S. While the events celebrated the best of Italian wines, they also recognized the very best restaurants in the U.S. for eating and drinking like a true Italian, awarding a total of 108 restaurants with top honors.
Gambero Rosso’s Top Italian Restaurants is the guide that recognises those who have pushed the boundaries to deliver gastronomic excellence far beyond Italy. While the stereotype of Italian food is that it is rooted in tradition and rigid culinary codes, the reality is that it is constantly innovating and evolving thanks to the tireless efforts of chefs and restaurant owners across the globe.
