List of Michelin-starred restaurants in Spain

As of the 2025 Michelin Guide, there are 291 restaurants in Spain with a Michelin star rating.^[1] The Michelin Guides have been published by the French tyre company Michelin since 1900. They were designed as a guide to tell drivers about eateries they recommended to visit and to subtly sponsor their tyres, by encouraging drivers to use their cars more and therefore need to replace the tyres as they wore out. Over time, the stars that were given out became more valuable.^[2]

Multiple anonymous Michelin inspectors visit the restaurants several times. They rate the restaurants on five criteria: "quality of products", "mastery of flavor and cooking techniques", "the personality of the chef represented in the dining experience", "value for money", and "consistency between inspectors' visits".^[2][3] Inspectors have at least ten years of expertise and create a list of popular restaurants supported by media reports, reviews, and diner popularity. If they reach a consensus, Michelin awards restaurants from one to three stars based on its evaluation methodology: one star means "high-quality cooking, worth a stop", two stars signify "excellent cooking, worth a detour", and three stars denote "exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey".^[4] The stars are not permanent and restaurants are constantly re-evaluated. If the criteria are not met, the restaurant will lose its stars.^[2]

Historically, Spain and Portugal were published as a joint-guide and ceremony. In 2024, Portugal was spun off as a separate guide and ceremony.^[5] In 2022, Andorra was included with Spain & Portugal and continues to be includes in the Spain ceremony.^[6]

Although Andorra is a separate country, its Michelin-starred restaurants are reviewed and awarded as part of the Michelin Guide Spain.^[23] As of the 2025 guide, the country has one Michelin-starred restaurant:
