Kasama has two different visits
Kasama offers daytime bakery and counter service, with a separate reserved Filipino-inspired tasting dinner. Its Two MICHELIN Stars in the 2026 selection describe the dinner restaurant; the daytime visit is its own experience.
Alinea and Oriole are reserved evenings
Alinea in Lincoln Park and Oriole in the West Loop both appear with Two Stars in the current 2026 city selection. Alinea’s own homepage still carries older Three Star copy; this guide uses the current selection and keeps the restaurant’s booking details separate.
Use the current selection for the wider city
Choose Chicago’s 2026 selection lists Smyth at Three Stars and names the current star and Bib Gourmand restaurants. This first BellyUp! collection is a starting group, rather than a complete list of every award holder.
