Alinea carries Two Stars and a Beard win from 2016, but it isn't alone — Boka, Esmé, and Galit each hold a Michelin One Star and a Beard Finalist nod of their own. Nadu backs up a Bib Gourmand with a 2026 Semifinalist mention. Even the Damn Good tier is stacked: John's Food and Wine, North Pond, and S.K.Y. all carry Michelin Selected status, with North Pond adding a Beard win from 2012. Small footprint, heavy hardware.
