“We are thrilled to retain this award and to be here amongst the best restaurants in the world is a feeling like no other. Winning this award 5 years in a row is a testament to the continuous hard work and dedication from our entire SOLE team. We are thankful for each guest that we have welcomed through our doors, our wonderful producers, local suppliers, partners and employees who have all made SOLE the success it is today.”
