Japan is renowned for its fine dining scene, and has received its fair share of Michelin stars over the past few years. Tokyo in particular has reigned unbeaten for several years as the city with the most Michelin-starred restaurants in the world. The culinary arts thrive in Japan, where seasonal ingredients are manipulated with skill, creativity, and techniques—both traditional and innovative—to create incredible Japanese food. The dedication to Japanese cuisine and mastery of other international cuisines has culminated in a diverse collection of Michelin-starred restaurants in Japan. The top Michelin restaurants in Japan are located not just in Tokyo, but nationwide—highlighting regional delicacies.
Michelin-starred restaurants in Japan specialize in everything from kaiseki cuisine in Kyoto to the freshest omakase sushi in Tokyo. Some restaurants focus on perfecting single dishes such as ramen or katsu, while others take on a broader scope. Their Michelin-starred menus and recipes have been perfected, in some cases over generations, to give Japan its well-earned reputation as a culinary powerhouse.
Unique culinary dining experiences abound at Michelin-starred restaurants in Japan. Some restaurants are specialized experts in one type of dish.
