The James Beard Foundation has unfurled its list of semifinalists today, all of which will be in consideration to win an award at the eponymous 2026 James Beard Awards. Considered one of the restaurant industry's most prestigious honors, the award spans categories such as Restaurant and Chef Awards, Media Awards (Book, Broadcast Media, Journalism), and Achievement Awards. Last year, the foundation introduced the new category of Impact Awards, which it describes as recognizing "achievement by individuals and/or organizations who are actively working to push for standards that create a more equitable, sustainable, and economically viable restaurant industry."
