The prestigious dining guide announced earlier this year that it would expand its coverage from Miami, Orlando and Tampa to Greater Fort Lauderdale, The Palm Beaches and St. Pete-Clearwater. That was big news. Well, now the guide has revealed which restaurants have been awarded a glittery star—or other Michelin recognitions. 

In a massive win for The Palm Beaches, Konro in West Palm Beach has earned its first star. Palm Beach Meats and Aioli received the non-star Bib Gourmand designation, which recognizes restaurants serving quality food at a lower price point than starred concepts. Fort Lauderdale’s Heritage was also included in that category. 

Fort Lauderdale’s MAASS and Miami’s Itamae Ao also earned a star.

The Michelin Guide’s recommended restaurant list grew this year with the addition of Palm Beach restaurants Buccan, Nicholson Muir Distinguished Meats, The Butcher’s Club, Coolinary and the Parched Pig, Moody Tongue Sushi and Stage Kitchen & Bar. In Fort Lauderdale, Daniel’s A Florida Steakhouse, Evelyn’s at the Four Seasons Hotel and Larb Thai-Isan also made the cut.

Congratulations to all the worthy restaurants!
