2024 Michelin Guide: One-Star Restaurants Worldwide — Page 29

One of West London's harder Michelin-starred reservations, Dorian earns the effort. Chef Max Coen's wood-fired Modern British cooking at Notting Hill's 105 Talbot Road is precise, sourcing-led, ranked #69 in OAD's Casual Europe list for 2025. Book three to four weeks ahead, budget for ££££, and take the service team's advice on ordering.

La Table de l'Orangerie at Château de Fonscolombe holds consecutive Michelin Stars (2024, 2025) for Chef Marc Fontanne's plant-forward Provençal tasting menu. At the €€€€ tier in Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade, it is the area's most credentialed creative dining room. Book four to six weeks out minimum; and request outdoor seating when conditions allow.

BACK is Marbella's most accessible Michelin-starred restaurant; a bistro-format modern kitchen with a one-star pedigree and an OAD Europe top-600 ranking, at a price tier well below what comparable credentials cost elsewhere in Spain. Book three to four weeks ahead for weekends. The Entorno tasting menu is the right call for a first visit or a special occasion dinner.

Ancòra is Cesenatico's most technically precise modern restaurant, operating out of the villa that once housed two-Michelin-star Magnolia. Resident chef Marco Garattoni leads a fish-forward contemporary menu with serious fine-dining credentials. At €€€, it is the right choice for a special occasion dinner on the Adriatic Riviera; book 1–3 weeks ahead depending on season.

Les Belles Perdrix de Troplong Mondot holds a Michelin star (2024 and 2025) and a Gault&Millau Remarkable designation, making it the clearest choice in Saint-Emilion for a serious wine-integrated tasting menu. Chef David Charrier's seasonal cooking is built around the estate's own Saint-Emilion wines. Book three to six weeks ahead; this is hard to get into, especially during harvest season.

Auro holds a Michelin star (2024 and 2025), AAA 5 Diamond status, an Esquire Best New Restaurants ranking; making it the strongest case for a serious dinner in Calistoga. Chef Rogelio Garcia's seasonal Californian menu runs dinner-only at the Four Seasons, with a 475-selection wine list and $$$$ pricing. Book four to eight weeks out; this one fills fast.

A canto is a ¥¥¥ Italian restaurant in Osaka's Chuo Ward where classical pasta training; the chef spent time at Enoteca Pinchiorri in Florence; is the main event. The signature bavettine with dried mullet roe and lime has been a fixture for years. With easy booking, it is the clearest choice for serious Italian cooking in this tier in the city.

Il Flauto di Pan earned its 2024 Michelin star with Campanian creative cooking served on one of the Amalfi Coast's most quietly dramatic terraces, inside Villa Cimbrone. Dinner only, hard to book, priced at €€€€; but if you are planning a special occasion in Ravello, this is the clearest recommendation in the category.

Le Trabe holds a Michelin star inside the Capodifiume estate near Paestum, offering two Campanian tasting menus preceded by a guided estate tour and wine cellar aperitif. It is the most complete fine-dining experience in the area, but the format is fixed and booking is hard; secure your table six to eight weeks ahead, especially for summer visits.

DINS Santi Taura is Palma's most compelling case for a Michelin-starred tasting menu in the city itself. Chef Santi Taura's 11-course Origens menu is built entirely around seasonal Mallorcan ingredients, with a Michelin star earned in 2021 and an OAD Europe ranking of #476 in 2025. Booking is straightforward relative to the quality on offer.

Pineapple and Pearls holds a Michelin star and ranks #80 in North America on OAD (2025), making it one of Washington D.C.'s most credentialed tasting menu experiences. Chef Aaron Silverman's deliberately celebratory format; tableside theatre, warm storytelling service; earns the $$$$ price point for guests who want fine dining to feel like an occasion. Book six to eight weeks out for weekends.

La Mère Germaine holds a Michelin star (2024) and in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, with a vegetable-forward tasting menu recognised by the We're Smart Green Guide and a wine list anchored in the appellation. At €€€€, it is the clearest special-occasion choice in the village. Book the terrace well in advance; availability at this level is tight.

Stefan Wiesner's Michelin Bib Gourmand-recognised, nine-course tasting menu in the Entlebuch Biosphere Reserve is one of Switzerland's best-value serious dining experiences. A participatory, ceremony-style lunch; ranked #273 in OAD Europe 2025; at the €€ price tier. Book for occasions when you have the full afternoon free; the format requires it.

't Korennaer is a Michelin-starred restaurant in Nieuwkerken-Waas (Sint-Niklaas) where chef Edwin Van Goethem builds tasting menus around carefully sourced Belgian produce with Eastern flavour accents. At €€€ pricing; a tier below most starred Belgian peers; and, it is worth booking for the value it delivers. Availability is limited, so reserve well in advance.
