The Bear, featuring stars like Ayo Edebiri and Jeremy Allen White, won 6 Emmys in 2024. Anticipating Season 3, here's a glimpse at a few restaurants you might recognize from the show! Mr. Beef Serving classic Chicago eats, this shop was the inspiration for Michael's The Original Beef restaurant and where the pilot episode of the show was filmed. What to get: The Italian beef sandwich with hot peppers. Fun fact: The Bear creator, Christopher Storer, has been friends with the owner of Mr. Beef, Chris Zucchero, since kindergarten. Zucchero's commitment to his restaurant has kept him so focused that he hasn't watched any episodes of The Bear.
