We're only a few days into the new year but all eyes are already on the 25 most anticipated restaurant openings in the United States for 2014.
The team at Zagat has compiled the list and ranked The Progress in San Francisco as the top upcoming restaurant. The new spot will be run by Stuart Brioza and Nicole Krasinski and will be located just down the street from their famed State Bird Provisions. It's set to open in the first quarter of the year.
Rounding out the top five most anticipated restaurant openings of 2014 you'll find: Roy Choi's POT in Los Angeles; an unnamed project from Danny Meyer in New York City; Washington, DC's China Chilcano by José Andrés; and a yet-to-be named project by Tony Mantuano in Chicago.
It's worth noting that Giada de Laurentiis made the list for her upcoming Giada in Las Vegas, a restaurant expected to compete with big names on the strip. Richard Blais will open the much-awaited Juniper & Ivy in Sand Diego while Philadelphia awaits Iron Chef's José Garces Volver restaurant.
