James Beard Restaurants in Boston

Oleana, Uni, and Myers+Chang hold wins, with Comfort Kitchen, Yunnan Kitchen, Krasi, and Sarma Restaurant among the finalists. The rest stretch across a deep semifinalist bench, several doubling up with Michelin Selected or Bib Gourmand nods. Recognition isn't our rating — eight land in Delicious, nine in Damn Good, and thirteen only make Worth Trying. The badges tell you who Beard noticed; our tiers tell you where to actually eat.
