The MICHELIN Guide announced the 2024 restaurant selection for the MICHELIN Guide Toronto & Region this week, featuring 100 restaurants in total.
The selection in year three expands the territory to include Toronto & Region.
Four restaurants earn a MICHELIN Star for the first time, these include DaNico, Hexagon, Restaurant Pearl Morissette and The Pine, with Restaurant Pearl Morissette also being the newest Green Star restaurant in the selection, which recognises sustainability leaders.
Toronto & Region now holds 15 one MICHELIN Starred restaurants, two Green Stars and a two MICHELIN Star restaurant, with Sushi Masaki Saito remaining atop the list.
In addition to four new Starred restaurants, the Guide boasts four new Bib Gourmands, which recognises good food at moderate price. These include: Berkeley North, Conejo Negro, Guru Lakshmi and Rasa.
The full selection, including Green Stars and Recommended eateries, totals 100 restaurants and 30 cuisine types represented.
“As we toast to year three of the MICHELIN Guide in Toronto, we are excited to see the selection expand beyond the city centre, with new and emerging talent being spotlighted,” said Gwendal Poullennec, the International Director of the MICHELIN Guides.
“We are very pleased to welcome four new eateries into the family of MICHELIN-Starred restaurants and hope this serves as encouragement for the restaurant community to continue raising the bar. The chef and culinary teams’ passion is evident with a strong focus on indigenous ingredients and sustainable gastronomy.”
The famous one, two and three MICHELIN Stars identify establishments serving exceptional cuisine that’s rich in flavour, remarkably executed and infused with the personality of a talented chef.
