MICHELIN Guide 2024 - Tokyo - 1 new Two MICHELIN Stars restaurant

• The MICHELIN Green Star highlights the sustainable commitment of one new establishment

• Two Special Awards are presented: the MICHELIN Mentor Chef and MICHELIN Service Awards

Today, Michelin is pleased to present the 2024 edition of the MICHELIN Guide Tokyo. Recommending a total of 504 restaurants, this 17^th selection dedicated to the Japanese capital features no fewer than 183 MICHELIN Star establishments, including 1 new Three Star restaurant, 1 new Two Star, and 16 new One Star establishments. One restaurant is also newly awarded the MICHELIN Green Star, bringing the total to 11 restaurants whose eco-friendly commitments have impressed the Inspectors.

Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guide, states: “For the first time in four years, we are delighted to once again gather Tokyo restaurateurs in a celebration of one of the most important restaurant selections within the MICHELIN Guide family. For 17 years, our MICHELIN Guide Inspectors have been scouting the city looking for the best culinary experiences. They have been amazed by the tremendous quality and refinement they find here, and are delighted to share it not only with local gourmets but also with international food lovers. The more than 500 restaurants recommended in this year’s selection – including the sushi restaurant Harutaka, which is promoted to the highest culinary summit – sets a new record as Tokyo continues to be the most-acclaimed city in terms of both quality eateries and MICHELIN Star establishments. The new addition to the MICHELIN Green Star category, which brings the total number of spotlighted restaurants to eleven, illustrates the growing concern of local chefs for a more sustainable gastronomy, though their establishment is located in the world’s largest metropolis, and they face a number of challenges arising from that.”
