Pour one out for the London restaurants that lost their stars in the recent update to the Michelin Guide.
The 2026 awards for Great Britain & Ireland were held earlier this week in Dublin, and as well as 10 newly anointed London restaurants, a number of places were left sadly star-less.
Humo in Mayfair was the only restaurant to officially lose its Michelin star, with the decision made after acclaimed chef Miller Prada left at the start of 2025. The live-fire restaurant gained its star under the direction of the Colombian-born chef, who had previously worked with Endo Kazutoshi at Endo at the Rotunda in White City.
Prada is currently looking to launch a new project of his own. Time Out’s five-star Humo review – written when the restaurant still had its star – praised the chef, saying: ‘Watching the skilled, admirably efficient Prada at work is also all part of the joy of Humo. His way with placing beetroot jus on a plate of lamb was hypnotic, the resulting red squiggles and shapes resembling a static Alexander Calder mobile.’
A host of one star restaurants have also closed since the last awards, including the two-Michelin-starred La Dame de Pic at Four Seasons Hotel London at Tower Bridge and the two-Michelin-starred Bibendum in South Ken. The one star Lyle’s in Shoreditch, Dosa at the Mandarin Oriental Mayfair (which was open less than a year), and The Five Fields in Chelsea have also shut down, with Club Gascon in Smithfield set to stop operating next month. As such, all six of these restaurants have been removed from the final ranking of London Michelin star restaurants.
