Discover Dubai's Best Michelin Star Restaurants 2024

Hey foodies, big news from Dubai!

The Michelin folks have dropped their latest lineup of top-notch eateries for 2024, and it's looking tastier than ever. This all went down at a glam awards show at One&Only One Za’abeel on July 4. So, let’s dive into the deets.

This year, Dubai's Michelin Guide shines with four places snagging 2 Michelin Stars (one more than last year) and fifteen spots earning 1 Michelin Star (up from eleven). Green Stars, which spotlight sustainable places, are still steady with three winners.

The Bib Gourmand list, all about killer food at great prices, now boasts 18 champions, just one more than last year. Plus, four hotspots got special pats on the back with Michelin Special Awards, and another eleven made the Michelin Selected list, totaling up to 106 restaurants.

Still no three-star spots, though. Maybe next year?

Alright, here's who's rocking the stars this time:
