Updated October 2026 · 20 starred restaurants

Every Michelin star in Amsterdam 2026*

Michelin presented its 2026 Dutch selection on 5 October at the MECC in Maastricht, and Amsterdam came away with nothing new. No new star, no promotion. Kokswereld had named 212 a favourite for a third star and also mentioned Ciel Bleu; both keep two, and De Librije in Zwolle remains the only Dutch three-star. The new two-star restaurants are Azurite in Delft and SUIS in Schin op Geul, and the seven new one-stars all went outside the city.

The count went down. Spectrum, Sidney Schutte's two-star in the Waldorf Astoria, closed at the end of May after twelve years. De Juwelier, the Utrechtsestraat bistro of the 212 duo, lost its star. So did Daalder, which moved back to the Lindengracht in June and was taken into the guide again in September without one. Amsterdam goes from 23 starred restaurants to 20, the first time in ten years the city has lost any. Nationally the total stays at 119.

Below are all 20: four with two stars, sixteen with one, each band ordered by how long the restaurant has held its current stars, from Yamazato in 2002 to CUE and Choux in 2025. Each entry carries a line from Michelin itself, translated from its Dutch text. Entries in our guide link to our review; the rest link to Michelin or the restaurant's own site. After that come this year's changes and all 14 Amsterdam Bib Gourmands, three of them new since 28 September. Oriole lost its Bib this year.

Ten of the 20 are in our guide and carry an EatStreet score next to the name. That score is ours and is set independently of Michelin: a star does not raise it and a lost star does not lower it, which is why Daalder and De Juwelier keep their pages and their numbers. The other ten are not in our guide yet, so they appear here with Michelin's verdict only.
