DiRoNA-Distinguished Restaurants of North America

Timeless. Creative. Legendary!

Distinguished dining is an evolving art. From the damask tablecloth to the diner countertop, DiRoNA redefines what is means to be distinguished by recognizing the “best of the best” in three unique categories.

Our restaurants reflect the three dimensions of distinguished dining and the many factors that go into a satisfying dining experience.

Those who seek the best dining experiences in North America know to start their search with DiRōNA. Use our online guide for a comprehensive listing of all DiRōNA restaurants.

Restaurants that achieve the DiRōNA distinction include all cuisines across the United States, Canada and Mexico in three distinct categories: Timeless Traditional, Creative Contemporary, and Legendary Landmark. These categories represent a wide variety of dining experiences, from “white tablecloth, white glove” service to casual, down-home dining. What distinguished them all is a commitment to quality—the hallmark of our member restaurants.

To date, fewer than 800 restaurants have earned the right to call themselves a DiRōNA restaurant and display this Achievement of Distinction in Dining.

To qualify, a restaurant must meet critical guidelines, including an established legacy and a rigorous anonymous inspection that evaluates ambience, cuisine, service and check accuracy, among others. Only those who pass on all levels are offered DiRōNA membership. Learn More
