53 restaurants in Taiwan awarded Michelin stars this year
2025-08-19
The latest Michelin Guide for Taiwan is out, featuring a total of 53 restaurants. There were three restaurants that kept their three stars, including Cantonese restaurant Le Palais for the eighth consecutive year. This year, the Michelin guide also evaluated restaurants in New Taipei and Hsinchu, but no restaurants from these municipalities were awarded. There was also not a single starred restaurant in Tainan, even though it’s supposedly the capital of Taiwanese cuisine.
A delectable roast duck is being fire-glazed with Cointreau. There’s also a tender roast baby duck on the platter. These are offered at Cantonese restaurant Le Palais, which got awarded three stars on the Michelin guide, for the eighth consecutive year! Other two Taiwan establishments that kept their three stars are contemporary restaurant Taïrroir and Singaporean restaurant JL Studio.
Other honorable mentions, which were awarded one star last year and two stars this year are EIKA, Yu Kapo and Restaurant A. The latter was founded by Chef Alain Huang, who previously served at the now closed Michelin two-star restaurant RAW. Under Huang’s artful touch, the roots, stems and leaves of seasonal vegetables are arranged into a garden landscape.

We’re grateful of Michelin’s seal of approval. But in the end, it’s all about working hard. Don’t think too much, just do it.
This year, a total of 7 restaurants got their first star. There’s aMaze, which offers a contemporary twist on predominantly Hangzhou-style Zhejiang cuisine. This dish combines Taiwanese-style chicken roll with pan-seared foie gras underneath a honeycomb crust, delivering bold layers and balance.
Another newly awarded restaurant is HoSu, which specializes in ingredients native to Taiwan, such as millet and aiyu jelly. Chef Ian Lee even shed a few happy tears when his restaurant received the award.

I had never thought I would win this honor. I was honestly quite shocked. But still, I think it’s only about doing what you’re supposed to do well. I froze a bit when asked to stay on the stage.
This year, a total of 53 restaurants were listed in the Michelin guide. And although restaurants in New Taipei and Hsinchu were evaluated for the first time, none were named in the guide. Meanwhile, not a single Tainan establishment received Michelin stars, despite the reputation of the city’s cuisine in Taiwan.
