Here Are Los Angeles’s 2025 James Beard Award Finalists | Eater LA
"This Anaheim establishment was named a finalist in the 2025 James Beard Awards' restaurant and chef categories when the foundation released its trimmed finalist list on April 2; winners will be announced June 16 at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. The James Beard Awards — frequently described as "the Oscars of food" — added three new award categories for 2025 (Best New Bar; Outstanding Professional in Beverage Service; Outstanding Professional in Cocktail Service) and have recently undertaken reforms after canceling programming in 2020 and 2021 amid misconduct and equity concerns." - Rebecca Roland
