New York is known for having top notch restaurants that are impossible to get into.

The list is based on more than 5 million restaurant reviews submitted by OpenTable diners for more than 15,000 restaurants in the U.S.
Of the 100 restaurants that made the list, 14 restaurants were in New York State — and of that group, 10 were in New York City. The rest are in Long Island, a nearby suburb.
