Michelin Announces the 2024 California Guide Picks

On Monday, August 5, Michelin released the 2024 edition of its California red guide. There are now 85 starred restaurants in the Golden State, 10 of which are seeing stars for the first time.

New additions to the two-starred restaurants include Chef Justin Cogley’s Aubergine in Carmel-by-the-Sea, new Nordic-inspired Sons & Daughters in San Francisco and Chef Jordan Kahn’s contemporary stunner Vespertine in Culver City.

The City by the Bay also sees three new one-starred restaurants: Kristina Liedags Compton and Rachel Sillcocks’s hip Hilda and Jesse; John Wesley and Julianna Yang’s Kiln; and Chefs Serena and David Fisher’s sleek 7 Adams.

Holbox, Chef Gilbert Cetina’s Mexican eatery in Mercado La Paloma, Chefs Yoshitaka Mitsue and Shingo Kato’s Uka and Jordan Kahn’s Meteora (where ICE Culinary Arts alum Keita Suzuki serves as Sous Chef), all in Los Angeles, also received one Michelin star. R | O-Rebel Omakase in Laguna Beach was also awarded a Michelin star.

Congratulations to all restaurants acknowledged in the 2024 edition of the Michelin Guide California. View the full list here.
