Michelin Guide Tokyo 2025
Michelin awards for Tokyo 2025 were announced today (17th October 2024), 7 weeks earlier than last year.
2025 is a relatively quiet edition. 2-star additions are even more muted than 2024. Most of the new 1-Star restaurants I've already reviewed. A review of Yama will follow in time. apothéose and Primo Passo I plan to visit. Héritage and Yotsuya Minemura I don't plan to visit, at least for now. Yakitori Takahashi I won't be going to. Makimura is finally deleted after years of not taking new reservations. Yoshitake-san is moving to NY in 2025 so his restaurant is deleted. La Clairière is closed until March 2025. Floraison's chef retired. Other deletions I don't have any information on. It could be that Hato is fully booked for 2025. Another six sushi restaurants are dropped from The Guide. Not quite as spectacular a bonfire as last year but still making The Guide even less relevant for sushi.
The first table below has the full list of Starred restaurants with breakouts for promotions, demotions, new entries and deletions. The second table has the new and deleted Selected and Bib Gourmand restaurants. The number is the Tabelog score as on the same day as today's announcement, with a link to the restaurant's Tabelog page. The medal denotes any Tabelog Award 2024.
For the official list of restaurants see the online Michelin Guide.
Wow! You didn’t waste any time with the latest Michelin results! As soon as I noticed the guide was talking about 2025 I checked over here and sure enough. So is Sushi Hashimoto the highest Tabelog ranked Michelin starred Tokyo sushiya? I’m pretty happy with that result because it is relatively easy to book.
ReplyDelete😁 It would seem so, though his score seems to fluctuate a lot. Ryujiro is not far behind, but consistently always slightly behind.
DeleteMaybe interesting and related to the relocation of Yoshitake. I was dining at Sushi Sho, which just appeared in the Michelin guide NYC. I heard that Yoshitake, Mekumi, and Mitani are all opening locations in NYC.
ReplyDeleteTurns out Yoshitake is not moving after all but is setting up a standalone restaurant. I corrected the post. I've heard all kinds of rumours about NYC openings so let's wait and see. Yamazaki (Nishiazabu) was supposed to be moving but that's not happening now.
