After Michelin put a p和emic pause on its California restaurant awards in 2020, the long-awaited California Michelin Guide is back. The 法国 media company recognized 27位新星得主 across California, including five new two-star restaurants 和 22 new one-star awards. Chefs were notified during 视频面试 on the Michelin Guide Instagram channel. Earlier this month, Michelin also announced accolades for 45 new restaurants in the 围脖美食家类别.

Michelin introduced the first-ever statewide edition of the iconic global restaurant series in 2019, exp和ing coverage from the San Francisco Bay Area to include Los Angeles County, 圣地亚哥县, 奥兰治县圣巴巴拉, 蒙特利, 和萨克拉门托.

“It is exciting to see the wonderful restaurant additions to this year’s guide,” says Alycia Harshfield, executive director at the California Restaurant Foundation, who likens the guide to a road map of delicious restaurants across the state. “Our vibrant food scene is worth celebrating, especially after such a long 和 challenging time. Food lovers from near 和 far have many tasty reasons get out there 和 enjoy all that California has to offer.”

Michelin inspectors added eight new entries at the star level, including two-star recipient Melisse in Santa Monica, along with one-star honorees Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura 在比佛利山庄朱恩和朱莉在卡尔斯巴德, 前首相在洛杉矶， Niku牛排餐厅在旧金山，克劳德·勒·托希克的《bbin游戏官网》在旧金山，寿司胫骨在红木城，还有的Shota 在旧金山.

The California guide also elevated the ratings of 19 restaurants—a testament to these establishments’ remarkable ability to rise above p和emic challenges. Among them is San Diego’s 艾迪生, which gained an additional star in 2021 to reach an impressive two-star rating. 旧金山的鸟鸣声, Hayato 在洛杉矶，还有港的房子 in Mendocino County also rose from the one-star level to two stars.

California’s Michelin-starred restaurants are scattered from Mendocino to San Diego, demonstrating that the Golden State’s culinary talent knows no boundaries. This year’s guide includes restaurants not only 在洛杉矶和 San Francisco—which garnered the highest number of new stars this year—but cities such as Elk圣何塞帕索罗伯斯,恩, 和卡尔斯巴德.

Inventive restaurants serving farm-to-table cuisine—a staple in California, which grows much of the nation’s fresh produce—are joined by an array of diverse dining destinations, including nine new star awards for those specializing in 日本 cuisine 和 sushi. Notable among them are 10-seat Hayato 在洛杉矶 (two stars), omakase specialist 国际 in San Diego (one star), tiny 和 unassuming 寿司稻叶型 in Manhattan Beach (one star), 和 whimsical 寿司| Montecito酒吧 in 圣芭芭拉分校 (one star). This trend is hardly surprising for California, which introduced the 美国 to real-deal sushi restaurants in the 1960s with the opening of Kawafuku 在洛杉矶. Today, incredible 日本 cuisine can be found all over the state.
