Michelin has logged 19 new additions to its Florida Michelin Guide, including eight Miami-area restaurants, ahead of its annual awards ceremony, set for April 18 in Tampa.
Although the precise designations won’t be announced until the ceremony, these eight spots have a good chance of snagging a coveted star.
The eight Miami-area additions:
- EntreNos (seasonally inspired Florida cuisine in Miami Shores)
- Kaori (sleek, Asian-inspired menu in Brickell – with a listening bar!)
- Maty’s (Chinese-Peruvian fusion in Midtown – and one of New Times‘ 10 Best New Miami Restaurants of 2023)
- Ogawa (an optimum omakase experience in Little River – and a 2023 “10 Best”)
- Ossobucco (one of the 10 Best Restaurants in Wynwood)
- Pez (a taste of Baja in downtown Miami’s Flagler District)
- Shingo (Coral Gables omakase standout – a 2023 “10 Best”…+ chef collabs!)
- T’m T’m (yet another 2023 “10 Best” entry)
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,800 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.

Regardless of what you think of Michelin’s modus operandi, the variety of restaurants Michelin chose – ranging from Vietnamese and Peruvian to Japanese and contemporary American – aptly reflects Miami’s dining scene.
The Michelin Guide was established in Europe more than a century ago when the Michelin tire company published a series of guidebooks in 1900 that listed places for new motorists to visit. Stars were added to the guide in 1926.
The Florida Guide is one of a handful of Michelin’s U.S. expansion, which has grown to include New York City, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Colorado, and California. A restaurant may be awarded one to three stars or designated as a Bib Gourmand establishment (indicating exceptional value for a three-course meal).
