MICHELIN Guide Paris 2026

Every starred and Bib Gourmand restaurant in Paris and Île-de-France, by distinction.

The MICHELIN Guide has rated restaurants since 1926. Its inspectors visit anonymously and pay for their meals. Stars reward the cooking only, not the decor or the service: one star for high-quality cooking, two for excellent cooking and three for exceptional cuisine. The Bib Gourmand highlights good food at moderate prices.

Frequently asked questions

When is the MICHELIN Guide France published?

The French selection is usually announced once a year, in the first months of the year. This site is updated after each new edition.

Do I need to book a starred restaurant in advance?

Yes, for most of them. Three-star and popular one-star restaurants are often fully booked several weeks ahead, especially for dinner. Lunch is usually easier, and often cheaper.
