List of Michelin-starred restaurants in Los Angeles and Southern California

This article contains a complete list of Michelin-starred restaurants in Los Angeles and Southern California. Michelin published restaurant guides for Los Angeles in 2008 and 2009 but suspended the publication in 2010.[1] Publication of the guide would resume for Southern California in 2019 but now covered all of California in one guide. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and wildfires in California, the French tire company's restaurant guide for California took a hiatus in 2020.[2]

2023 – 2024 lists

edit

Since the 2019 edition of the Michelin Guide, reviews have covered the entire state of California.
