Michelin Reveals France’s Stars for 2025

The Michelin Guide France revealed its 2025 restaurant selection in the Moselle town of Metz, celebrating its 125th edition with 78 new stars.

Two restaurants – Le Coquillage in Brittany and Christopher Coutanceau in La Rochelle – joined the prestigious three-star ranks. Le Coquillage, led by Hugo Roellinger, offers refined, sea-inspired dishes rooted in family tradition. Christopher Coutanceau (pictured), known as the “fisherman chef”, returns to the top with a sustainable, seafood-focused menu and joins the Passion Dessert list thanks to pastry chef Benoît Godillon.

The guide now lists 654 starred restaurants across France, with nine new two-stars, 57 new one-stars, and 10 new green-star venues, recognising eco-friendly practices. Michelin Guide director Gwendal Poullennec praised the selection as a reflection of France’s enduring culinary excellence. The Bib Gourmand list, honouring great value, adds 77 new entries.

The Michelin Guide France 2025 includes a total of 31 three-stars, 81 two-stars, 542 one-stars, 100 green-stars and 399 Bibs Gourmands.
