Anima by EDO has been named the best new restaurant in the US by Yelp for 2023, the platform announced Wednesday. The Spanish fusion restaurant topped a list of 25 restaurants in 14 states.
According to Yelp, its winners — all of whom opened between Jan. 1, 2022, and Aug. 7, 2023, with passing health scores as of August 7 — were ranked by factors including the total volume and ratings of reviews.
Anima by Edo was opened at 9205 W. Russell Road, in southwest Las Vegas, by previous James Beard Awards finalist Chef Oscar Amador in January 2022.
Also making the same Yelp list was Martha Stewart’s Paris Las Vegas spot, The Bedford, which ranked No. 22.
