(Le Vallauris Outdoor Dining)
Palm Springs, CA
Summer is here and with it, increased demand for al fresco dining nationwide. OpenTable data reveals outdoor dining increased 20% in May and 19% in the first half of June (June 1 – 15), compared to 2022.
To help diners discover a new favorite patio or rooftop, OpenTable released its annual list of 100 Most Popular Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in America, created by analyzing over 13 million OpenTable diner reviews with four Palm Springs Restaurants making the list.
While the list debuts with the summer season, OpenTable data shows diners embraced outdoor dining as early as January 1st in places like Los Angeles, Palm Springs, San Francisco, Miami, Atlanta, and even in cooler climates like New York City, Washington DC and Philadelphia – a testament to restaurants’ creativity and efforts to make it a year-round activity.
The 100 Most Popular Restaurants for Outdoor Dining list features restaurants coast-to-coast with delicious cuisine, picturesque settings, and above all, incredible outdoor dining experiences. The list spans 20 states with California and Florida again taking top spots, respectively featuring 31 and 17 restaurants.
“Outdoor dining is up 19% YoY for June (1 – 15), a strong start to the season,” said Susan Lee, Chief Growth Officer of OpenTable. “With many restaurants elevating outdoor dining spaces for summer and beyond, this list represents dining destinations with incredible outdoor – and culinary – offerings.”
