How this list is chosen: Restaurants holding Michelin stars, listed alphabetically. Updated October 8, 2026.
D.O.M.
2 Michelin stars
D.O.M. holds two Michelin stars and a sustained presence in the World's 50 Best Restaurants list, positioning it at the summit of São Paulo's fine dining tier. Chef Alex Atala's kitchen treats the Amazon as a pantry, bringing native ingredients like jambu, tucupi, and priprioca into a tasting format that has redefined how Brazilian cuisine is read internationally. Reservations are essential, and the Jardins address has anchored the city's premium dining scene since 1999.
Evvai
3 Michelin stars
Evvai holds two Michelin stars and a place in the World's 50 Best at number 95, making it one of São Paulo's most decorated restaurants. Chef Luiz Filipe Souza's single tasting menu, Oriundi, channels the Brazilian-Italian migrant tradition through technically precise cooking and local ingredients. Pinheiros, Tuesday through Saturday evenings, with Saturday lunch service also available.
Fame Osteria
1 Michelin star
Fame Osteria holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) on Rua Oscar Freire, São Paulo's most address-conscious strip, where Chef Marco Renzetti works contemporary Italian forms through Brazilian produce and a tight front-of-house program.
Huto
1 Michelin star
Huto holds consecutive Michelin stars for 2024 and 2025, placing it among the few Japanese restaurants in São Paulo's Moema district earning that recognition two cycles running. Chef Rob McDaniel leads a kitchen operating at the $$$ price point, where Japanese technique meets the expectations of a city with one of the largest Japanese diaspora communities outside Japan.
Jun Sakamoto
1 Michelin star
São Paulo's most decorated sushi counter, Jun Sakamoto has held a Michelin star continuously since 2024 and sits among the leading 60 restaurants in South America by Opinionated About Dining. Operating from a quiet address on Rua Lisboa in Pinheiros, the restaurant runs Tuesday through Saturday from 7 to 11 pm, placing it firmly within the city's evening fine-dining circuit.
Kan Suke
1 Michelin star
Kan Suke holds back-to-back Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) and represents one of São Paulo's most considered Japanese kitchens, operating under chef Kunio Tokuoka in the Paraíso neighbourhood. The format follows kaiseki principles, where seasonal progression and restraint carry more weight than spectacle..
KANOE
1 Michelin star
KANOE earned its first Michelin star in 2025, stepping up from a Michelin Plate in 2024, and operates out of Jardins on Alameda Itu, one of São Paulo's most concentrated blocks for serious Japanese dining. Chef Tadashi Shiraishi runs a kitchen that sits in the premium tier of the city's Japanese scene, priced at $$$$ and positioned alongside a small cohort of Michelin-recognised Japanese addresses in the city.
Kazuo
1 Michelin star
Kazuo holds a Michelin star in both 2024 and 2025, placing it among a compact tier of São Paulo restaurants where Japanese technique meets Brazilian ingredients. Located in Jardim Europa, Chef Kazuo Harada's room draws a crowd that treats the counter as destination rather than convenience. For São Paulo's Asia-influenced fine dining scene, it functions as a reliable reference point.
Kinoshita
1 Michelin star
Kinoshita holds a Michelin star in São Paulo's Vila Nova Conceição neighbourhood, where Chef Kunio Tokuoka applies a Japanese ingredient-first discipline to a kitchen operating far from its source materials. Reservations warrant planning ahead.
Kuro
1 Michelin star · Wine Spectator Award of Excellence
Kuro transforms São Paulo fine dining through Chef Gerard Barberan's mastery of binchotan charcoal grilling, where just ten guests per sitting witness an exclusive omakase experience featuring pristine seasonal fish and well-known grilled sushi in an intimate counter setting near the Museu de Arte de São Paulo.
Maní
1 Michelin star
Maní holds a Michelin star and a 95-point La Liste score while occupying a distinct position in São Paulo's creative dining scene: technically precise Brazilian cooking that draws on Amazonian ingredients without losing sight of European technique. Chef Helena Rizzo's menu places vegetables and native produce at its structural centre, earning the restaurant a decade of international recognition including a 2014 peak of #36 on the World's 50 Best list.
Murakami
1 Michelin star
Murakami holds two consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) and sits at the sharper end of São Paulo's Japanese contemporary scene, where European technique and Brazilian produce meet in a format that rewards repeat visits. Located on Alameda Lorena in Jardins, it operates in the same price tier as the city's other starred rooms and draws a crowd that books ahead. Chef Hans Neuner's European fine-dining lineage gives the kitchen a distinct angle within the genre.
Oizumi Sushi
1 Michelin star
Oizumi Sushi holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) and sits inside São Paulo's tightest tier of Japanese dining, where the kaiseki-influenced multi-course format shapes both what arrives at the table and what the city has come to expect from serious Japanese cooking. Located in Cidade Monções, it is among the handful of addresses that have redefined São Paulo's relationship with Japan's seasonal culinary traditions.
Picchi
1 Michelin star
Picchi holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) and sits among a small cohort of Italian restaurants in São Paulo where European technique meets the city's own ingredient culture.
Ryo Gastronomia
1 Michelin star
Ryo Gastronomia earned its first Michelin star in 2025, placing Chef Edson Yamashita's Japanese kitchen among São Paulo's most closely watched fine-dining addresses. The restaurant sits in Itaim Bibi, the neighbourhood that concentrates most of the city's premium Japanese cooking, and operates at the summit price tier where sourcing discipline and technical precision determine reputation.
Tangará Jean-Georges
1 Michelin star · Deep wine list
Set within the Palácio Tangará hotel in Panamby, Tangará Jean-Georges holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) under chef Filipe Rizzato, positioning it among São Paulo's tightest tier of contemporary fine dining. The format draws on Jean-Georges Vongerichten's global contemporary framework while reading clearly Brazilian in its references and produce.
Tuju
3 Michelin stars · Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence
Tuju holds two Michelin stars and a place at number 70 on the World's 50 Best list (2025), positioning it among a small group of São Paulo restaurants that have turned the city's multicultural density into a coherent creative program. Chef Ivan Ralston Bielawski works from seasonal Brazilian ingredients, and the wine list, 910 selections, 3,500 bottles in inventory, ranks among the strongest in South America by Star Wine List criteria.
