These Miami restaurants were just added to the Michelin Guide

Florida’s culinary scene reached a historic milestone this year as the 2026 Michelin Guide Florida selection expanded statewide for the first time, shining a spotlight on 200 exceptional restaurants stretching from the Panhandle to Key West. Yet amid the guide’s broader reach, Miami and South Florida once again proved themselves the epicenter of the state’s dining excellence.

“What began just a few years ago has grown into something truly remarkable,” said Gwendal Poullennec, the Michelin Guide’s international director. “Florida’s culinary landscape continues to evolve, which led our anonymous Inspectors on a journey from the Panhandle to Key West to uncover the best dining experiences and hidden gems to make up this year’s selection.”

The region celebrated some of the guide’s most exciting honors, and one Miami restaurant was awarded a Michelin Star for its innovative chef-driven approach that's redefining local cuisine. In North Miami, Mutra earned its inaugural star under the direction of Israeli Chef Raz Shabtai, effectively becoming the first-ever fully kosher restaurant in the world to earn a Michelin star. Named after his grandmother, the intimate chef’s counter has captivated diners with a hyperlocal interpretation of Middle Eastern flavors. Seasonal dishes such as earth-cooked beets paired with beetroot sorbet, lamb kebabs served with smoked eggplant cream, and delicate muhallebi milk pudding exemplify the restaurant’s inventive yet deeply personal approach.

Meanwhile, Miami’s fine-dining crown jewel, L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon Miami, maintained its elite status as Florida’s only two-star restaurant for the fifth consecutive year. Fellow South Florida restaurant Emelina, in West Palm Beach, also earned one star.

Beyond luxury dining, the Michelin Guide also recognized Miami’s thriving casual restaurant scene through its Bib Gourmand selections, which honor establishments offering exceptional food at accessible prices. Among the newly-recognized Miami-area restaurants were Barra Callao, To Be Determined, Double Luck and Cotoa—each showcasing the city’s remarkable diversity of flavors, cultures and culinary creativity.
