MICHELIN Stars: 25 Restaurants
The MICHELIN Guide California 2026 gave San Francisco 25 starred restaurants: 4 with three stars, 6 with two and 15 with one. The stars were revealed on June 24, 2026, when Californios went from two stars to three and Naides and Wolfsbane got their first. Every starred restaurant and every one of the city's 12 Bib Gourmands is on this page, along with 63 Recommended restaurants from MICHELIN's San Francisco listings.
Where a restaurant is a short walk from one of our shopping districts, we say so.
