James Beard Restaurants in Kansas City
Michelin hasn't come to Kansas City. The Beard Foundation has, one win going back to 1998.
11 spots with national recognition, led by Anjin, a 2026 Finalist in the Crossroads. The rest are semifinalists spanning three decades, down to Stroud's Oak Ridge Manor, a 1998 Winner that only rates On the Radar with us now. Recognition isn't our rating — the badges and our tiers tell two different stories, and we run both.
