MICHELIN Guide inspectors spend all year on the road uncovering the best restaurants to recommend — and what they've found is too good to keep a secret.
While the MICHELIN Guide annual distinctions — Stars, Green Stars and Bib Gourmands — granted to some of our recommended restaurants will only be revealed at the next annual ceremony, restaurants will be added to the Hong Kong selection and the Macau selection every second Wednesday of every other month.
The new venues will be featured in the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong and Macau websites and the MICHELIN Guide mobile application (available on iOS and on Android). These locations will be highlighted with a "New" symbol for easy identification.

Seven new establishments join the Hong Kong selection this month. Highlights include a nostalgic restaurant serving timeless Cantonese classics, Hong Kong’s first cheese omakase, vibrant Thai favorites and French-Asian creations from a Hong Kong–born chef of Swiss–Filipino heritage.
Celebrated chefs and familiar names also return to the list. L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon makes a comeback with a more spacious and comfortable setting; Chef Roland Schuller’s new spot introduces a pasta house showcasing comforting flavors and rustic charm; while Chef Barry Quek of One-MICHELIN-Starred Whey presents creative, home-style Southeast Asian fare inspired by his childhood memories in a new dining concept.

Dragons' Den
Hidden in a shopping mall at the foot of Lion Rock, this restaurant has retro decor and mid-century modern furniture in keeping with the menu – a rollcall of yesteryear's Cantonese classics, such as baked egg omelette with fish tripe, which is hard to come by. Their famous squab is dry aged for five days before being smoked with pear wood and deep fried. The dim sum lunch is also hugely popular. Certain barbecue and seafood dishes need to be pre-ordered.

L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon
After renovation works, the Hong Kong outpost of the globally renowned brand of high-end restaurants returned in 2025. The brand’s DNA (i.e. the iconic red-and-black color scheme and even longer counter) remains, but with a larger-than-life and more dramatic edge than ever. The open kitchen allows diners to admire the sophisticated culinary gems in the making as they are meticulously crafted by the dexterous kitchen team.

La Volta
With soft lighting and exposed brick walls, this pasta bar helmed by chef Roland Schuller exudes rustic charm. The rotating menu features both fresh and dried pasta alongside seasonal produce. One standout is the handmade pappardelle alla genovese – the meat ragù clings to each ribbon of pasta beautifully and imparts deep, layered flavours. Save room for the signature poached Williams pear tart with a flaky puff pastry crust and house-made gelato. (Hero image ©La Volta)

Roucou
An expert cheesemaker has teamed up with French and Japanese chefs to offer Hong Kong’s first cheese omakase with 12 courses that combine French artisan cheeses with Japanese culinary art. The tasting menu juxtapose different taste profiles and textures for a genuine fine dining experience. In addition to the 8-seater omakase counter, there is a main dining room for guests ordering à la carte dishes. Check out their Japanese-inspired cocktails, wine and sake pairing options.
Siaw
Named after the Thai word for "friends", this bustling joint with an open kitchen, colorful façade and Thai pop soundtrack oozes tropical vibrancy. The menu covers all-time Thai favorites, from street snacks and boat noodles to rice dishes and desserts. The pad kra pao – minced pork or beef with holy basil and fried eggs on steamed rice – has a wonderful kick. Try the kha nom krok, too: crispy coconut rice flour pancakes with custardy centers.

Té Bo
A perfect spot for sophisticated food in an unpretentious space. Chef Sebastian, a Hong Kong native with Swiss-Filipino roots, honed his craft in some prestigious kitchens. In keeping with his eclectic background, he combines a reverence for classical French technique with Asian accents. His Wagyu short rib ravioli bursts with juices, creating a contrast with silky black truffle mashed potato enveloped in pasta dough. Ask the sommelier about wine pairings. (Left image ©Té Bo)
Uncle Quek
Another dining concept overseen by chef Barry Quek of Whey fame, Uncle Quek impresses with creative home-style Southeast Asian fare inspired by the chef's childhood memories. His signature lobster laksa, served in a shrimp broth with tomalley, spices and coconut milk, boasts addictively complex flavors. Crispy and aromatic, the cereal-crusted fried chicken is a variation on the famous Singaporean shrimp recipe. The lunch sets are great value.

Ho Ho Chak
The apt moniker of this Chiu Chow restaurant is Ho Ho Chak, which means ‘delicious’ in Teochew dialect. The three brothers who run the joint also wholesale seafood and fruit, so they have reliable access to the best ingredients. The signature steamed pork patty with mud crab is loaded with buttery roe while the pork is springy and finely textured. Fried omelette with dried radish and ground pork is browned on the outside and custardy on the inside. (Right image ©Ho Ho Chak)

Sushi Takeshi
Chef Kin’s stints at famous sushi-ya in Hong Kong and Japan explain his exceptional sushi making skills and artistry. According to the oiliness of each fish, he pairs it with rice dressed in one of his two vinegar blends. A single omakase menu is served, composed entirely of ingredients flown in from Japan, such as umami-laden kuruma prawn that is perfectly cooked and boasts bouncy, juicy flesh.

Albergue 1601
The yellow façade of the century-old building contrasts well with the splashes of red adorning the stylish interior. The Portuguese chef specialises in no-frills classics, using mostly ingredients from his home country. Start with petingas fritas, or deep-fried whole baby sardines, followed by leitão assado, or crispy-skin roast suckling pig with orange, and fried potato rounds in a spicy sauce. Try also the Portuguese white wine brewed by the chef himself. (Left image ©Albergue 1601)
Lakeview Palace
The chef, who worked in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai for years, melds the rounded flavours of Jiangnan fare with Sichuanese mala seasoning and Cantonese subtlety and freshness. His eight-treasure roast duck is a hybrid between the Huaiyang and Cantonese varieties – sticky rice is wrapped in crispy duck skin and topped with caviar. (Right image ©Lakeview Palace)

Nok Song
Quality ingredients from around the world are crafted into fusion Thai dishes. Examples include spicy raw shrimp salad featuring Obsiblue from New Caledonia, or heart of palm red curry with Iberian pork collar from Spain. For a sweet finale, go for the fruity, fluffy mango soufflé pancake roll. (Hero image & left image ©Nok Song)

Seven varieties of xiao long bao are available, ranging from the traditional pork filling to novelties like cheese and black truffle. The nicely pleated soupy dumplings are made to order and taste even better with chili oil.
