Indienne and Topolobampo lead, both Michelin One Stars, both with James Beard wins or finalist nods attached. Behind them, Obélix and Frontera Grill hold Delicious, backed by a Bib Gourmand and a Beard win of their own. The rest of the list is sixteen Damn Good spots deep — steakhouses, sushi, pizza, a Beard semifinalist among them. River North doesn't just have two headliners; it has a bench most neighborhoods can't match.
