Michelin Star Restaurants in Thailand: The Short Answer
The 2025 selection lists 1 three-star restaurant, 7 two-star restaurants and 28 one-star restaurants. That makes 36 starred tables in total. Sorn in Bangkok is the only three-star holder and the first in the country. Bangkok holds the large majority of the rest. A handful of one-star rooms sit in Phuket, Phang-Nga and Nonthaburi. Stars are reassessed every edition, so read the current list on the official starred restaurants page before you lock in dates. Prices and hours checked November 2026.
Three-Star and Two-Star Restaurants
Sorn is the single three-star address. Chef-owner Supaksorn Jongsiri cooks Southern Thai food as a paced tasting menu. Diners should expect to reserve about two months ahead. The seven two-star restaurants are all in Bangkok, so one city trip covers the whole tier.
Sorn needs about two months of lead time, so reserve it first, then fit R-HAAN's bookings, taken from 10:30 to 23:00, around that date.
| Tier | Restaurant | City | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Three stars | Sorn | Bangkok | Southern Thai tasting menu; plan around a two-month lead time |
| Two stars | R-HAAN | Bangkok | Thai cuisine purists; three seasonal menus; private room for 8 to 12 |
| Two stars | Côte by Mauro Colagreco | Bangkok | Two-star dining by a named international chef |
| Two stars | Gaa | Bangkok | Two-star dining in the capital |
| Two stars | Chef's Table | Bangkok | Two-star dining in the capital |
| Two stars | Baan Tepa | Bangkok | Two-star dining in the capital |
| Two stars | Mezzaluna | Bangkok | Two-star dining in the capital |
| Two stars | Sühring | Bangkok | Two-star dining in the capital |
One-Star Restaurants Worth Planning Around
The one-star tier is the widest, with 28 restaurants in the 2025 selection. Most are in Bangkok. Two of them need no tasting-menu budget of time: Jay Fai and Nahm are widely known names on the list. Pick by neighborhood and dinner slot rather than trying to collect them.
- Bangkok, modern and international: Coda, Goat, AVANT, Chim by Siam Wisdom, Signature, Le Normandie, Resonance, Maison Dunand, IGNIV, 80/20.
- Bangkok, Thai-focused: Saneh Jaan, Aksorn, Jay Fai, Nahm, Wana Yook, Nawa, Samrub Samrub Thai, Le Du, INDDEE, Potong.
- Bangkok, other styles: Blue by Alain Ducasse, Haoma, Mia, Elements, Inspired by Ciel Bleu.
- Outside Bangkok: Aulis (Phang-Nga), PRU (Phuket), AKKEE and Suan Thip (Nonthaburi).
Stars Outside Bangkok
Outside the capital, stars are rare. Aulis in Phang-Nga and PRU in Phuket cover the Andaman coast. AKKEE and Suan Thip sit in Nonthaburi, a short hop from Bangkok. Chon Buri joined the guide in the 2025 edition, with 20 new venues added. Heading to the islands instead? Read about Michelin dining in Krabi for the south coast. Samui travelers can use Michelin picks on Koh Samui. Treat those places as Michelin-recognised dining unless the official page shows a star.
How to Book a Michelin Table in Thailand
Book directly through the restaurant's own site or phone line. Start early for Sorn, where a two-month lead is the norm. R-HAAN takes bookings online and by phone from 10:30 to 23:00. Its private room seats 8 to 12 guests and needs at least 7 days' notice. R-HAAN asks for smart casual dress and rules out sportswear, shorts, sleeveless tops and sandals. Walk-ins there are offered the bar area only, not the tasting menu. Valet and limited parking are available, so request a space when you reserve. Tell the restaurant about allergies at booking, not at the table. Menus change by season, and R-HAAN runs summer, rainy season and winter menus, so ask which one is current. Ask about cancellation terms when you reserve.
Star, Bib Gourmand or Street Food: Which Fits Your Trip?
A star marks cooking judged excellent enough to travel for. A Bib Gourmand marks good-value cooking, and a Selected listing marks a place the inspectors liked. Budget-minded readers will get more tables per day from the Bib Gourmand restaurants list. Stall-based eating is covered in Michelin-listed street food. Jay Fai shows that a one-star can still feel like a street-food kitchen.
Which Restaurant Fits Which Trip?
Match the table to the trip, not the star count.
Group bookings for R-HAAN's private room, which seats 8 to 12 guests, need 7 days' notice, so settle the headcount early.
- First-time visitor with one splurge night: choose a Bangkok one-star and book at the earliest slot.
- Thai cuisine purist: Sorn for Southern Thai, or R-HAAN for seasonal menus.
- Group or celebration: R-HAAN's private room, for 8 to 12 guests.
- Short layover: skip star dining and eat at a Bib Gourmand or street-food address.
- Mistakes to avoid: booking late, ignoring the dress code, and assuming walk-ins can get a table.
