With many people using TikTok as an alternative to Google, restaurants can land quick and significant fame with TikTok users’ posts. These can include beautiful spots to dine or places where the food is so delicious that the surroundings don’t even matter. If you trust the judgment of others, you’ll want to know which restaurants are the most popular on the platform and build your travel around them. Online gambling company Betway has analyzed the 160 most popular restaurants in the US and tabulated each spot’s hashtag views to come up with a list of the 10 most popular.
First is Catch in Los Angeles, a seafood house with a retractable roof to dine under Californian stars (and maybe with some, too!). In second place is New York City’s Katz’s Deli, which Meg Ryan really, really liked in When Harry Met Sally and which has amazing latkes and other Jewish deli fare. And coming in third is The Marine Room in La Jolla, CA, serving seafood in a long glassed-in dining room with the waves at eye level.
In fourth place, you’ll find Perch with French-inspired dining perched on the top of a Los Angeles skyscraper. Next is Oiji Mi with upscale Korean cuisine on 19th Street in New York, followed by Nobu Malibu, recognized this summer as the world’s most beautiful waterfront restaurant.
Seventh is Flagstaff House, with new American cuisine in a chalet-style restaurant atop Flagstaff Mountain in Boulder, CO. Eighth is Key West’s Louie’s Backyard, serving casual Caribbean-American fare with an ocean view. Pietro Nolita takes ninth place with its family-inspired Italian cooking...and long before Barbie took us by storm with this summer’s movie, Pietro Nolita has been spreading the love of pink all around New York. And our caboose is the Commander’s Palace in New Orleans, an aqua and white striped James Beard award winner dating to 1893. Here, Haute Creole cuisine includes of course gumbo, but also Prosecco poached Louisiana Blue Crab and Turtle Soup au Sherry.
