Here Is the Full List of James Beard Awards 2025 Winners
Tonight, in a star-studded ceremony at the Lyric Opera in Chicago, the James Beard Foundation announced the winners of the 2025 James Beard Awards, considered the highest accolade for chefs and restaurateurs in America. In the major categories, Frasca Food and Wine in Boulder, Colorado was named Outstanding Restaurant, Jungsik Yim of Jungsik in New York City took home the award for Outstanding Chef, and Bûcheron in Minneapolis was named Best New Restaurant. It was a big night in general for NYC, which was shut out of the major categories entirely last year: This year, Atomix won for Outstanding Hospitality, while the team of Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr (of Frenchette, Le Veau d' Or, and Le Rock) won Outstanding Restaurateur. This evening's Restaurant and Chef Awards follow Saturday's Media Awards hosted by Padma Lakshmi, which celebrated food media working in cookbooks, journalism, and television and audio. For this 35th-annual Restaurant and Chef Awards, Nyesha Arrington and Andrew Zimmern acted as the ceremony hosts. Tonight's award winners, selected from a finalists list announced on April 2, follow previously announced 2025 Beard Award recipients: journalist and historian Toni Tipton-Martin (who earned the Lifetime Achievement Award), Cafe Momentum founder Chad Houser (who received the Humanitarian of the Year Award), and the five winners of the Impact Award. Several winners addressed the current political moment directly in their speeches — three specifically emphatically declared 'fuck ICE' at the end of their remarks.
