Michelin 2025: What’s New in Bangkok’s Dining Scene

The 2025 Michelin Guide Thailand was a landmark moment for Bangkok—introducing the country’s first-ever three-star restaurant, promoting new two-star destinations, and celebrating several fresh one-star establishments that broaden the city’s culinary spectrum.

First Three Stars: Sorn

Helmed by Chef Supaksorn “Ice” Jongsiri, Sorn earned three stars in 2025—making it the first Thai restaurant ever to achieve this status. Located in a restored mansion in Sukhumvit, Sorn specialises in elevated Southern Thai cuisine—like turmeric crab and Tapi River prawns—presented with discipline and storytelling. This elevation marks the guide’s recognition of regional authenticity at the highest level.

New Two-Star Entry: Côte by Mauro Colagreco

Bangkok welcomed a fresh two-star entry with Côte by Mauro Colagreco, introducing Riviera-inspired Mediterranean cuisine to the city. Chef Davide Garavaglia, trained at Mirazur, crafts seasonal menus blending French, Italian, and modern techniques. Its debut promotion underlines Bangkok’s appetite for global fine dining innovation.

Notable Promotions to Two Stars

Several restaurants were promoted to two stars in 2025, reflecting rising excellence in Bangkok’s culinary scene:

  • R-Haan — Royal Thai fine dining grounded in seasonal tradition
  • Gaa — Innovative Indian-inspired cuisine with bold flavor
  • Chef’s Table — Contemporary French haute cuisine
  • Baan Tepa — Thai contemporary gastronomic farm-to-table experience
  • Mezzaluna — European-Japanese fusion with stunning river views

Four Fresh One-Star Newcomers

The 2025 Guide added four brand-new one-star restaurants, each bringing fresh perspectives:

  • AKKEE — Rustic Thai cooking in immersive, dimly lit ambiance
  • AVANT — Singaporean chef-led fusion of modern and traditional
  • GOAT — Seasonal Thai-Chinese-Western concept using onsite herbs
  • Aulis — Chef’s Table format focusing on native ingredients and grower collaborations

Additionally, Coda was promoted from Michelin Selected to one star, refining local Thai cuisine with precise modern technique.

With 36 Michelin-starred restaurants now listed in Thailand, including seven two-star venues and 28 one-star rankings, the 2025 Guide confirms Bangkok’s status as a finely tuned, dynamic food capital. From the debut of the country’s first three-star restaurant to the arrival of new international and Thai-led concepts, this year’s guide reflects a city at the height of its culinary evolution.
