The culinary world’s equivalent of the Oscars was announced on Monday, and three Texas chefs were among the winners in 25 categories of restaurants and chefs honored at the ceremony for the James Beard Awards in Chicago.
Adrian Torres, of Maximo in West University Place in Houston, was named Best Emerging Chef and Evelyn Garcia and Henry Lu, of JŪN, also in Houston, were named Best Chef in Texas.
While they didn’t come away with the top prize this year, nearly a dozen other Texans were nominated including Hugo Ortega and Tracy Vaught, for Outstanding Restaurateur with H Town Restaurant Group (Hugo’s, Xochi, Urbe and others); Mixtli in San Antonio was nominated for Outstanding Restaurant; Agnes and Sherman, in Houston, were nominated for Best New Restaurant; Tavel Bristol-Joseph, of Nicosi in San Antonio and Maggie Huff, of Lucia in Dallas, were nominated for Outstanding Pastry chef or Baker; Junil Rodil, of March in Houston, was nominated for Outstanding Professional in Beverage Service; and five others joined Garcia and Lu in being nominated for Best Chef in Texas.

The winners this year represent 15 states and Washington, D.C.
The James Beard Foundation established the awards in 1990 and has bestowed them since 1991, except in 2020 and 2021, when the organization scrapped them as the restaurant industry was reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic. Restaurants apply for the awards. Judges, who mostly remain anonymous, try the cuisine before voting. Nominees are reviewed for the food and for a behavioral “code of ethics,” including how employees are treated.
