If you were looking for Mists of Pandaria Classic content, please refer to our Mists of Pandaria Classic Restoration Druid gems and enchants.
Foreword
In general, you should be using Haste enchants for pretty much all content. For the purpose of gaining more stats, we recommend using mixed stats gems since they provide slightly more than single stat ones.
Best Gems and Enchants for Restoration Druids
You will be able to use one Blasphemite gem. Its main purpose is to provide
Intellect, the secondary effects are not that important. The three possible
options are Culminating (Critical effect), Elusive (Movement Speed), and
Insightful (maximum Mana). Critical effect only provides half the benefit for
heals; maximum Mana is not useful because we have no Mana scaling at all.
Therefore, we recommend using
Elusive Blasphemite.
For the other gems, you should try to maximise the movement speed effect while
not sacrificing too much. Because Crit is not good for either Mythic+ or raiding,
you should only use 3 different types of gems.
Masterful Emerald,
Quick Onyx and
Quick Sapphire are the ones to pick. After you have
these 3 and Blasphemite, you can continue using
Masterful Emerald.

Consumables for Restoration Druids
Best Flasks and Potions for Restoration
Flask of Tempered Swiftness or
Flask of Tempered Mastery
should be used for raids along with
Algari Mana Potion as your potion of choice. If the fights are
short or you have access to a lot of external Mana, you can pop
Tempered Potion.
For Healing Potions, you will mainly use
Invigorating Healing Potion. These potions
are new to Patch 11.2 and heal for quite a bit more than old
Algari Healing Potion. Also,
do not forget
Healthstones for emergency healing.
Best Food for Restoration
Use a personal food
Beledar's Bounty. This is your best food, because
it provides more Haste. To make it proc Haste you can unequip some heavy Mastery
items. The buff will not update in combat and stay at Haste. You can eat large feast
(
Feast of the Midnight Masquerade)
if it is provided for free and you want to save money, but it will generally be worse.
Other Consumables for Restoration
Make sure you apply
Algari Mana Oil to your weapon.
Crystallized Augment Rune is the only other consumable worth mentioning.
Use it whenever possible for extra stats.
