Patio season has finally returned, and if you’re looking for the perfect spot to enjoy an al fresco meal, check out OpenTable’s new list of the most popular restaurants in Canada for outdoor dining.
The list is based on over 1 million reviews from diners on OpenTable and features incredible restaurants from coast-to-coast.
There are 59 restaurants in Ontario, 21 in British Columbia, nine in Quebec, seven in Alberta, and four in Atlantic Canada.
These restaurants offer “delicious food, beautiful views, and above all, incredible outdoor dining experiences,” says the online reservation platform.
And when it comes to nabbing a spot at these terraces, Canadians know that it’s essential to get a head start.
OpenTable says that restaurants in Vancouver, Toronto, and Calgary took reservations for outdoor dining as early as January 1st!
Apparently, all three cities as well as Richmond, White Rock, and Edmonton have already seen over 3,000 outdoor dining reservations this year.
Without further delay, here are the most popular restaurants in Canada for outdoor dining in 2023.
