The results from Michelin Guide Hong Kong and Macau 2025 have been announced
The Michelin Guide Hong Kong & Macau 2025 has been unveiled, featuring 260 restaurants across both cities—206 in Hong Kong and 54 in Macau—recognised across the Starred, Bib Gourmand, and Selected categories.
This year’s headline news is the promotion of Amber to three Michelin stars, a recognition of Richard Ekkebus’s long-standing vision for a refined, sustainability-driven approach to fine dining. Since its opening in 2005, Amber consistently held two-star status from the inaugural Michelin Guide Hong Kong and Macau in 2009 until 2024. Already distinguished with a Michelin Green Star for its environmentally conscious philosophy, Amber’s elevation after 17 years at two-star status cements its place as one of the city’s most influential restaurants.

In Macau, Chef Tam’s Seasons moves up to two stars, reflecting the increasing diversity of fine dining offerings in the city, while Hong Kong welcomes three promotions to one star: Ami, Plaisance by Mauro Colagreco, and Tuber Umberto Bombana. Macau also sees four new entries in the one-star category: Aji, Mizumi, Sushi Kissho by Miyakawa and Zuicho. Across both cities, the selection highlights a balance between classical techniques and a growing emphasis on ingredient-led, contemporary cooking.
The total count for three-starred restaurants now stands at seven in Hong Kong—8½ Otto e Mezzo – Bombana, Amber, Caprice, Forum, Sushi Shikon, Ta Vie and T’ang Court—and two in Macau—Jade Dragon and Robuchon au Dôme. There are now 17 two-star restaurants, including 11 in Hong Kong and 6 in Macau, while 69 restaurants hold one star—58 in Hong Kong and 11 in Macau.

Five restaurants retain Michelin’s Green Star for their commitment to sustainability. Amber, Feuille, Mora and Roganic in Hong Kong and UTM Educational Restaurant in Macau continue to set the standard for responsible gastronomy, whether through locally sourced ingredients, waste reduction, or environmentally conscious practices that go beyond the plate.

Meanwhile, Michelin’s three special awards acknowledge the talent that shapes the dining experience: Carlito Chiu (Andō) wins the Sommelier Award, recognised for his deep understanding of pairing, blending sake, Spanish and Argentine wines and tailoring selections to diners’ preferences. The Young Chef Award goes to Frankie Sui Wan Wong of Ankôma, whose experience at Écriture and Zest by Konishi led him to open his own restaurant, where he blends French technique with Asian influences and leads a team driven by precision and energy. The Service Award is given to Winnie Zhang (Wing Lei), whose ability to seamlessly guide diners through the restaurant’s offerings and personalise the guest experience demonstrates the level of care that defines top-tier hospitality.
This year’s results, as always, will spark discussion, debate and celebration, for it is only one of many voices in the conversation about what great dining looks like in these two cities today.
