MICHELIN Guide 2026 reveals first-ever statewide selection for Florida

This afternoon, the MICHELIN Guide 2026 revealed the first-ever restaurant selection for the entire state of Florida. This year’s selection features two new One MICHELIN Star restaurants: Emelina in West Palm Beach and Mutra in Miami. The full selection, including Bib Gourmands and recommended restaurants totals 200 eateries across 41 cuisine types.

“What began just a few years ago has grown into something truly remarkable,” said Gwendal Poullennec, International Director for the MICHELIN Guide. “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. As we welcome two new restaurants into the MICHELIN Star family for the first time, we celebrate the depth of talent across all of Florida. Congratulations to all the chefs and restaurant teams represented in this year’s selection!”

In a press release by Visit Orlando, President and CEO Casandra Matej congratulated Orlando with its 60+ restaurants recognized with MICHELIN Guide honors.

“Orlando’s continued presence in the MICHELIN Guide over the past few years speaks to the evolution of our dining scene and the depth, creativity and diversity found within our culinary community,” said Casandra Matej, president and CEO, Visit Orlando. “As dining increasingly influences where travelers choose to visit, this recognition further strengthens Orlando’s position as a destination where world-class cuisine is central to the visitor experience.”
