Book 6–8 weeks out minimum; this is not an easy table to secure.

    Overview

    The 2025 Michelin two-star list includes 515 restaurants across 40 countries and 290 cities. The Chefs Table at Brooklyn Fare leads, followed by Jean Georges in New York and Ynyshir Hall in Wales. This edition saw a complete refresh with 515 new entries and all 138 restaurants from the previous edition dropping out, including former top pick Les Sources de Caudalie.

    This edition represents the most significant reshuffling in recent Michelin two-star history. Not a single restaurant from 2024 retained its position; all 515 current listings are new to this tier. New York claims two spots in the top ten (Brooklyn Fare and Jean Georges), while Austria places three restaurants (Senns, Silvio Nickol, Ikarus). The geographic spread covers 290 cities, suggesting Michelin expanded its evaluation footprint considerably. Tokyo's Kikunoi, Salzburg's Senns, Denmark's Frederikshøj round out the diversity in the top rankings. The complete list turnover indicates either a major criteria adjustment or a fundamental reorganization of how Michelin categorizes two-star establishments globally.

    The 2025 Michelin two-star list underwent a complete reset. All 515 restaurants on this year's roster are new to the category, with zero holdovers from 2024. The Chefs Table at Brooklyn Fare takes the top position, displacing Les Sources de Caudalie, which dropped out entirely along with 137 other previous entries. The list now spans 40 countries and 290 cities, with New York and Austria showing particular strength in the top ten. If you're tracking two-star dining, this year requires starting from scratch; your 2024 reference points no longer apply.

    About This Edition

    The 2025 two-star edition marks an unprecedented shift in Michelin's approach. With 515 total venues and none retained from the previous year, this represents either a significant reevaluation of standards or a structural reorganization of the guide's methodology. New York demonstrates clear strength with two top-ten placements: The Chefs Table at Brooklyn Fare at number one and Jean Georges immediately following. Austria claims three spots in the top ten (Senns in Salzburg at fifth, Silvio Nickol in Vienna at seventh, Ikarus back in Salzburg at tenth), suggesting the country punches above its weight in this tier. The geographic distribution; 290 cities across 40 countries; indicates Michelin cast a wider net than in previous editions. Notable dropouts include Les Sources de Caudalie (the 2024 leader), Adare Manor, Saint James Paris, all of which disappeared from the two-star category entirely. Whether these restaurants moved up to three stars, down to one, or lost their recognition altogether isn't clear from this data. The complete roster turnover makes year-over-year restaurant tracking impossible, but it does mean the 2025 list offers a fresh perspective on global fine dining at this level.
