Since 2018, the annual Top25Restaurants.com list and awards have been powered by the Travelindex-owned and patented “Restaurant Rating Index.” The multi-asset index evaluates various facets of dining establishments, including the quality of food, ambience and comfort, value for money, and social indicators such as online presence, social markers, online footprint, media engagement, and review content analysis by AI.

Mr. Bernard Metzger, Founder & Chairman of Travelindex Group & TOP25 World, said “The Restaurant Rating Index is recognised as a benchmark for rating quality restaurants, and chefs aspire to be listed in the TOP25 Restaurants because it not only increases their restaurant’s reputation but also attracting discerning diners seeking unparalleled culinary experiences.”

In addition to Phuket, Travelindex also publishes TOP25 Restaurants Guides in Bangkok, Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Delhi. The TOP25 Restaurants Bangkok awards ceremony was held in June 2023.
