How this list is chosen: Restaurants holding Michelin stars, listed alphabetically. Updated October 8, 2026.
28+
1 Michelin star · Deep wine list
Few restaurants anywhere carry a Michelin star across more than three decades, and 28+ in Gothenburg is Sweden's record-holder. Anchored on Götabergsgatan since before most of the city's current fine-dining scene existed, it operates alongside its own wine bar, Vinbaren 28+, giving regulars a more casual entry point into the same kitchen's sensibility. The price tier sits at €€€, in line with Gothenburg's other starred contemporaries.
Hoze
1 Michelin star
Hoze brings omakase to Gothenburg's Stigberget neighbourhood with a format as strict as any Tokyo counter, two-hour sittings, four evenings a week, and a menu entirely at Chef José Cerdá's discretion. A Michelin star arrived in 2025, following consecutive Opinionated About Dining recognitions since 2023. The price range sits at the summit of the Gothenburg market, and the booking window reflects that demand.
Koka
1 Michelin star · Deep wine list
Beneath a 19th-century glass ceiling on Viktoriagatan, Koka holds a Michelin star for tasting menus that place vegetables at the centre of the plate without apology. The kitchen's seasonal logic runs deep: spring and summer menus lean heavily plant-led, while autumn brings fallow deer and game supported by fruit-forward sauces..
Project
1 Michelin star
Project Gothenburg elevates intimate fine dining through a husband-and-wife team's seasonal tasting menu, where Swedish seafood and local game meet Japanese influences in dishes like turbot with yuzu kosho, complemented by their well-known five-day bread and warmly eloquent service.
SK Mat & Människor
1 Michelin star
SK Mat & Människor holds a Michelin star (retained through 2025) and sits in Gothenburg's Johanneberg district, where chef Stefan Karlsson runs a Swedish-rooted menu available à la carte or as a tasting format.The room reads warm rather than formal, making it a credible choice for milestone meals that need both kitchen ambition and genuine comfort.
