The 2025 Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards

The Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards are Vancouver Magazine's annual celebration of the very best in our city's world-class restaurant scene, honouring the best dining destinations in more than 50 different categories, from Best Japanese and Best Italian to Best New and Best Upscale.

For our 36th annual event, we’re thrilled to once again open the doors to the public—which means that not only can finalists buy tickets for their teams, but readers and restaurant lovers can also join us for the big bash and awards ceremony.

On May 5th come raise a glass with the Vancouver magazine team to the chefs, restaurateurs and all-star staff who make this such a delicious place to live.

Held at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, the afternoon kicks off at 2:00 pm with a lively networking hour (complemented by bevs and bites, of course), before the big award ceremony begins.

For 2025, we’re honouring more than 50 category winners, thanks to the inclusion of our highly anticipated Readers’ Choice awards, Hall of Fame designations and our Editor’s Choice honourees.

Space is limited and this event always sells out, so don't wait: snag your tickets to the Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards today. You’ll be the very first to know about this year’s winners, so you can scoop everybody on reservations: tell us that’s not worth the ticket price.
