New York City's Tatiana by chef Kwame Onwuachi has been named a recipient of the Resy One to Watch Award from The World's 50 Best Restaurants.

Announced at a celebratory dinner on May 24, the restaurant, named after Onwuachi’s sister, Tatiana, received the award after being in business for just six months.

The Resy One to Watch Award recognizes a rising star restaurant making waves in the international culinary scene. The World's 50 Best Restaurants 2023 awards ceremony will take place in Valencia, Spain June 20.

“I want to thank my team and my support system first and foremost — none of this is possible without you. I'm excited, honoured, and grateful to be recognized on a world stage,” Onwuachi said.

The restaurant is situated at New York City's Lincoln Center in Manhattan's upper-west side.

The menu features dishes ranging from cornbread and cod, with smoked jerk cod, buttermilk soubise and fennel, to braised oxtails served with rice and peas, Thumbelina carrot and chayote squash.

Onwuachi, a Bronx native, first learned to cook at his mother’s side. And since then, he’s gone on to cook at some of the world’s most renowned restaurants, including Eleven Madison Park and Per Se.

Moreover, Onwuachi has previously opened five restaurants — all before the age of 30. The much-lauded Kith + Kin in Washington, D.C. was among them.

Onwuachi has also served as a judge on Season 18 of “Top Chef” following an appearance as a contestant five years prior.

“With Tatiana already one of the hottest tickets on New York City's culinary scene just six months after opening, this award could not be more deserved. Chef Kwame and his team are trailblazers delivering a standout gastronomic experience, putting Caribbean, African and Black American cooking in the spotlight,” William Drew, director of content for The World's 50 Best Restaurants, said in a statement.
