Creehan's Cuvee Voted into Two of Opentable's 2013 Top 100 Diners' Choice Award Lists

DESTIN, Fla. - Nov. 22, 2013 - PRLog -- Destin, Florida - Chef Tim Creehan's Cuvee Bistro has been recognized nationally by both Opentable's 2013 Top 100 Hottest Restaurant Bars and Opentable's 2013 Top 100 American Fare Diners' Choice lists.  As the sole representation of Northwest Florida on both lists and one of only three restaurants in Florida to be awarded, Cuvee's recognition shines a national spotlight on the city of Destin as well as the entire Emerald Coast's restaurant and tourism industries.  The advantage of this exposure is already evident with the "Cuvee Bistro - Destin, Florida" mention among the winners in Marketwatch's article about the unveiling of Opentable's (ticker symbol OPEN) 2013 Top 100 American Fare Diners' Choice Awards.

"We are very proud," Creehan commented.  "To be recognized nationally on an Opentable Top 100 list is a massive accomplishment in and of itself, but knowing these awards are the culmination of real reviews from real diners makes them all the more significant.  The ancillary benefit is that national exposure at this level can facilitate a terrific boost to the local economy, which in turn creates much needed jobs along the Gulf Coast."

OpenTable Diners' Choice Awards reflect the combined opinions of more than 5 million restaurant reviews submitted by verified OpenTable diners for approximately 19,000 restaurants in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.  The Diners’ Choice Awards for the Top 100 American Fare Restaurants in the U.S. are generated from more than 5 million restaurant reviews collected from verified OpenTable diners between November 1, 2012, and October 31, 2013. All restaurants with a minimum “overall” score and number of qualifying reviews were included for consideration. Qualifying restaurants were then scored and sorted according to the percentage of qualifying reviews for which “American cuisine” was selected as a special feature.  More information about Opentable Diners' Choice Awards at http://blog.opentable.com/2013/best-american-restaurants-...
