2024 MICHELIN GUIDE TORONTO & REGION | Recommended Restaurants

🕘 4.5 min read

The Recommended category is the one that sees the most changes in the Toronto edition of the Michelin Guide this year. Starting with a big uptick in selections from last year’s 43 to a whopping 61, the modifications continue:

• Alobar Yorkville  lost a star this year, but gained a Recommended designation, as did Yukashi. See below.
• 10 new additions: dropped into Toronto/GTA with four touching down outside the city.

Not to mention the temporary closures, including:

Buca on King as it’s “temporarily closed.” Did you know? It had been closed for months, and at the time being presented with this designation.
Jacobs & Co. is relocating to Bay St.
156 Cumberland “temporarily closed” at the end of December. As I broke the story in November, it’s on the move.
