Smyth, from Chefs John Shields and Karen Urie Shields, has been officially added to The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2024 and listed at #90. Smyth is one of only three U.S.-based restaurants featured on this year’s 51-100 list. The addition, the Chicago restaurant, which in November became the thirteenth restaurant in the United States to currently hold a third MICHELIN-star.

“It’s a distinct honor to be included on this prestigious list,” said Chef John Shields. “I’ve made it my life’s work to create transcendent culinary experiences that guests will never forget. We have the best team in the world here at Smyth and I’m proud to share this recognition with them.” 

“I often think about how our approach to hospitality stands out from other restaurants throughout Chicago and the world. I can best describe our service as technically proficient and purposefully perfect, but riding alongside that is the more important rail of empathy, listening, validating and ultimately fulfilling guests’ needs,” says Christopher Gerber, General Manager and Partner at Smyth.
