James Beard Recognition

James Beard Restaurants in Dallas

Michelin hasn't crowned Dallas yet. The James Beard Foundation has been watching for decades.

18 spots with national recognition, and one true winner — The Mansion Restaurant, honored in 1994 and sitting On the Radar today. The rest run from finalists like Lucia, MĀBO, and Georgie down through a deep semifinalist bench. Recognition isn't our rating — Tatsu Dallas and Goldee's Barbecue carry both a Michelin One Star and a Beard Semifinalist nod and still top our list on their own merits. The receipts are on every page.
