James Beard Restaurants in Richmond
No Beard winners here yet. Five semifinalist nods out of 94 spots we track in Richmond.
No finalists, no wins — just five kitchens that made a Beard semifinalist list between 2016 and 2026. L'Opossum and The Roosevelt lead as Damn Good, with Mama J's Kitchen and Lehja Restaurant rated Worth Trying. Mekong Restaurant rounds it out On the Radar. Recognition isn't our rating; we score them all the same way regardless of the badge.
