Michelin Guide Toronto 2025: Stars, Surprises, and the Full Lineup
The Michelin Guide has once again shone its spotlight on Toronto’s dining scene, and the 2025 announcement brought both exciting wins and a few surprising shifts. While the list didn’t expand dramatically, there are some notable additions and changes that food lovers will definitely want to know about.
Pearl Morissette rises to two stars
Ontario’s beloved Restaurant Pearl Morissette in the Niagara region was promoted from one to two Michelin stars, making it the only two-star restaurant in the Toronto guide. Already celebrated for its hyper-seasonal, farm-driven tasting menus, this promotion confirms its spot at the very top of Canada’s culinary landscape.
A new star for aKin
Toronto gained a new one-star restaurant: aKin, led by Chef Eric Chong. Known for inventive Asian-inspired tasting menus and a sleek, modern space, aKin showcases bold reimaginings of dishes like lobster cheung fun and char siu bao. Chong also earned Michelin’s Young Chef Award this year — a double win worth celebrating.
A surprising downgrade
In a twist, Sushi Masaki Saito, long considered one of Toronto’s most exclusive dining rooms, lost one of its stars and now holds a single Michelin star. For three years it was Toronto’s only two-star, so this change was big news in the city’s food scene.
New Green Star for Sundays
The eco-conscious spotlight fell on Sundays in Uxbridge, which earned a Michelin Green Star for its dedication to sustainability. With much of its menu sourced directly from its own farm, Sundays joins Pearl Morissette and White Lily Diner as Ontario’s trio of Green Star restaurants.
Six new Bib Gourmands
For those who love great food at more accessible prices, Michelin added six new Bib Gourmand spots. From Italian to Indian, this brings Toronto’s total Bib Gourmand tally to 26 — proof that the city thrives not only at the high end, but also in its mid-range gems.
