Our Inspectors have just added 37 restaurants to The MICHELIN Guide France, including seven in Paris. Some may even receive a Star come awards time next year.

Our MICHELIN Guide Inspectors spend the entire year crisscrossing the country, uncovering hidden gems and culinary wonders worthy of your next reservation. While Stars and other awards are only revealed once a year, the Inspectors' latest picks are just too good to keep under wraps until next year's ceremony. So, they’ve decided to share them with us below. And you never know, some of them may be in the running for a Star. All will be revealed next March.

Our Inspectors’ freshest finds are also spotlighted in our restaurants section, as well as on our MICHELIN Guide app, where they are marked with a “New” symbol to make them easy to find. Make sure to check the app every month to be the first to find out which restaurants the Inspectors have added to their official selection in each destination.

At Hakuba, Japanese chef Takuya Watanabe, formerly of MICHELIN-Starred Jin, collaborates with Three Star chef Arnaud Donckele of Plénitude (also in the Cheval Blanc and one of Paris’s most exclusive addresses), to create an extraordinary dining experience. Guests enjoy an intimate, moodily lit sushi bar where the chefs’ meticulous preparation, from slicing to plating, takes center stage.

Qasti Green (Paris 2nd)

Well-liked chef Alan Gleam is behind this restaurant which deserves every bit of its success. Alan’s cooking reimagines the great classics of Lebanese cuisine with a veggie twist. Dishes include vegetable freekeh, soujou hummus, and mama ganoush (cauliflower caviar). A relaxed atmosphere enhances the experience.

LAVA (Paris 5th)

How do you blend a chef’s love for fire with a sommelier’s expertise? At LAVA, Wilfried Romain and Rémi Badjoint have the answer, bringing vibrant, flame-kissed dishes to life, pairing French produce with bold, travel-inspired spices and handpicked wines.

Mojju (Paris 7th)

Thibault Sombardier, known for his restaurants Mensae and Sellae, delivers an exceptional Korean barbecue experience at Mojju, located close to the Eiffel Tower. The menu features aged meats, marinated fish, and an array of fermented vegetables, all expertly prepared by a Korean team and served with flavorful sauces and other sides to pick from.

Adami (Paris 9th)

Hidden behind a modest façade on Rue Pierre-Fontaine in Pigalle, Adami offers a sophisticated take on Italian bistronomy with a focus on fresh pasta. Created by an American-Swiss gourmet and led by Chef Marco Sergiampietri, the restaurant showcases a deep knowledge of Italy's diverse pasta shapes.

L’Évadé (Paris 9th)

Rémi Poulain and Anthony Rivière have revamped the former restaurant 23 Clauzel, including its interiors, which they’ve given a fresh look. The menu features contemporary dishes with creative touches, such as white asparagus with parsley cream, black pollock with sweet peas, and a veal ribeye with hazelnut crust, alongside thoughtfully crafted desserts and a robust selection of spirits.

Clutch (Paris 11th)

A typical contemporary eastern Paris setting, a chef who’s worked alongside local favorite Pierre Sang, and a cuisine infused with influences from all over the globe: what’s not to love? The restaurant's name refers to a pivotal moment in a basketball game, much like how US basketball sensation Stephen Curry is known for being a "clutch player." It’s certainly a restaurant on the way up in the Parisian restaurant scene.
