Recognized as an “America’s Classic” restaurant by the James Beard Foundation, Bessemer’s Bright Star was founded by Greek immigrant Tom Bonduris in 1907, and 111 years later, his descendants, brothers Jimmy and Nicky Koikos, and their cousin, chef Andreas Anastassakis, carry on the family tradition.
