One Miami restaurant earned its first Michelin star while four others earned a Bib Gourmand in this year's Guide, announced Thursday.
Why it matters: The annual guide rounds up what those in the industry consider to be the best of the best, and can elevate a restaurant into fame far beyond its city.
- The Guide has been reviewing Florida restaurants for a handful of years, but this year's selection covers the entire state for the first time.
State of plate: Mutra, the farm-to-table Middle Eastern restaurant in North Miami, earned its first star.
- It's the only kosher restaurant to currently hold a star, per a news release.
- Emelina, the Cuban restaurant in West Palm Beach, also earned its first star.
Meanwhile, the Guide also recognized Barra Callao, To Be Determined, Double Luck and Cotoa in the Bib Gourmand category, which includes more budget-friendly options.
