How this list is chosen: Restaurants holding Michelin stars, listed alphabetically. Updated October 8, 2026.
BingSheng Mansion (Xiancun Road)
1 Michelin star
BingSheng Mansion on Xiancun Road holds a Michelin star and a 2025 Opinionated About Dining ranking among Asia's top 300, placing it in Guangzhou's serious Cantonese tier. The format centres on a main dining room and 32 private rooms, with handcrafted dim sum, double-boiled tonics, and roasted goose anchoring a menu that treats classic technique as a live discipline rather than a museum piece.
BingSheng Private Kitchen (Tianhe East Road)
1 Michelin star
A private kitchen in Tianhe that reconstructs the grandeur of Guangzhou's Xiguan mansion era through decor, seasonal ingredients, and a Cantonese menu anchored by braised Doumen mud crab, lemongrass-scented squab, and ginger milk custard with bird's nest. Recognised on La Liste's 2026 Top Restaurants list with 77 points, BingSheng Private Kitchen operates at the ¥¥¥ tier and requires reservations two to three days in advance.
Chōwa
1 Michelin star
Chōwa earned its first Michelin star in 2025, a rapid progression from the Michelin Plate it held the year prior, and sits in Guangzhou's Liwan District as one of the city's more considered addresses for innovative cuisine. Chef Louis Tam drives a format that draws returning guests rather than one-time visitors, placing it in a different register from the district's more traditional Cantonese houses.
Hongtu Hall
1 Michelin star
A Michelin-starred dim sum house in Guangzhou's Panyu District, Hongtu Hall has held one Michelin star in both 2024 and 2025 at a mid-range price point that sits well below the city's Cantonese fine-dining tier. The address places it outside the central business district, drawing guests who make the deliberate trip south for yum cha at a recognised standard.
Imperial Treasure Fine Teochew Cuisine
1 Michelin star
Imperial Treasure Fine Teochew Cuisine holds a Michelin star and consistent OAD Asia rankings in Guangzhou's Yuexiu District, making it one of the city's most credentialed addresses for Chao Zhou cooking. The kitchen operates under Chef Alfred Leung, working within a tradition that prizes subtlety, precise seasoning, and unhurried pacing over spectacle. Priced at ¥¥¥, it sits in the upper-mid tier of Guangzhou's formal dining bracket.
Jade River
1 Michelin star
Jade River holds a Michelin star for the second consecutive year (2024 and 2025), placing it among Guangzhou's more established one-star Cantonese addresses in Tianhe District. The restaurant sits within Tianhe Park, separating it physically from the dense commercial strips that define most of the city's recognised dining tier. Chef Ryan Nuqui leads the kitchen, working within a Cantonese framework at the ¥¥¥ price point.
Jiang by Chef Fei
2 Michelin stars
Jiang by Chef Fei holds two Michelin stars and a Black Pearl Diamond at its Tianhe District address, placing it among Guangzhou's most decorated Cantonese tables. Chef Huang Jinghui's kitchen balances classical technique with seasonal creativity, from refined dim sum at lunch to roasted Wenchang Chicken at dinner. La Liste has ranked it among the world's top restaurants in both 2025 and 2026.
Lei Garden (Yuexiu)
1 Michelin star
Lei Garden (Yuexiu) holds a Michelin star and Black Pearl Diamond alongside a La Liste score of 79 points, placing it in the upper tier of Guangzhou's Cantonese dining scene. For serious Cantonese cooking at a mid-range price, few addresses in Tianhe carry equivalent formal recognition.
Lingnan House
1 Michelin star
Set within the living-history grounds of Lingnan Yinshangyuan in Guangzhou's Panyu District, Lingnan House holds consecutive Michelin stars for 2024 and 2025, placing it among the city's most decorated Cantonese tables. Under chef Stéphan Bernhard, the kitchen interprets Cantonese tradition with a precision that makes it a serious choice for milestone meals and celebratory dining in southern China.
Rêver
1 Michelin star
Rêver holds two consecutive Michelin stars (2024, 2025) under Chef Julien Xu, operating from the fifth floor of Guangzhou Media Centre in Haizhu District. The French Contemporary kitchen places it at the ¥¥¥¥ tier of Guangzhou's Western fine-dining bracket, a narrow category in a city dominated by Cantonese traditions.
Song Chinese Cuisine
1 Michelin star
Song brings Sichuan cooking to Guangzhou's Tianhe district with two consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) and a price point that sits a tier below the city's premium Cantonese houses. Chef Robin Song's kitchen operates inside Grandview Plaza's east tower, placing refined spice-forward cuisine in a commercial hub that increasingly defines Guangzhou's contemporary dining scene.
Suyab Courtyard・Pickmoon Gourmet
1 Michelin star
Suyab Courtyard・Pickmoon Gourmet holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) alongside a Black Pearl Diamond for its Chao Zhou cooking in Guangzhou's Tianhe district. Under chef Lennon Silvers Lee, the kitchen applies serious technique to one of southern China's most demanding regional cuisines. At ¥¥¥¥ pricing, it sits at the summit of the city's Teochew fine-dining tier.
Wisca (Haizhu)
1 Michelin star
Wisca (Haizhu) holds consecutive Michelin stars (2024 and 2025) alongside a Black Pearl Diamond, placing it among Guangzhou's recognised practitioners of reinterpreted Cantonese cooking. The ¥¥ pricing tier makes it one of the more accessible entries in the city's awarded Cantonese tier. For anyone tracking where classic technique meets contemporary expression, this address in Tianhe deserves serious attention.
Xin Ji
1 Michelin star
Xin Ji holds a Michelin one-star rating for 2024 and 2025, placing it among Guangzhou's recognised addresses for Cantonese cooking at mid-range prices. Located in Baiyun district, it represents a tier of the city's dining scene where Michelin recognition and accessible pricing coexist, a combination that remains less common than the award count alone might suggest.
Yong
1 Michelin star
A Michelin-starred Sichuan concept in Guangzhou's Yuexiu District, Yong operates from a heritage building on Yanjiang Middle Road under the supervision of celebrity chef Lan Guijun. Fixed-price menus blend classical Sichuan technique with deliberate Cantonese inflections, house-made pickles, five-colour noodles, lobster pairings, producing a cross-regional dialogue that earns its place among Guangzhou's serious dining options.
Yu Yue Heen
1 Michelin star
Yu Yue Heen holds a Michelin star in both 2024 and 2025, placing it among Guangzhou's most decorated Cantonese dining rooms. Located in Pearl River New City's Tianhe District, it operates at the ¥¥¥¥ tier where classical technique and serious wine selection define the experience. Chef Yongsheng Li leads the kitchen, and the room draws a clientele accustomed to the finer registers of Cantonese cuisine.
