The Best Chef Awards celebrate excellence across all types of dining experiences, from fine-dining to casual establishments, while encouraging a more equitable and sustainable industry.

New York City restaurants won three of the six major national awards: outstanding chef (Jungsik Yim of Jungsik ), outstanding hospitality ( Atomix) and outstanding restaurateur (Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr of Frenchette, Le Rock and Le Veau d’Or ).

Chefs and restaurants were honored on Monday night with James Beard Awards, one of the US culinary community’s highest accolades.
