What we know, and what to verify
The five newcomers of the 2024 edition above are named by the Vietnamese press. For the 2026 edition, the third-party site also names Ưu Đàm, Hà Thành Mansion and Bún Chả Chan: to verify. None of our sources gave the full list of selected restaurants or any stars. Hours, addresses and prices change: get the exact address from the Michelin site or Google Maps on the day.
How to eat at these places
- Without booking: go outside peak hours, before 11:30 or after 13:30; street stalls sometimes close early.
- With a guide: a walking tour with several tastings in the Old Quarter, linking well-known places and saving you the wait.
- Other dishes not to miss: see bún chả, the best phở and Vietnamese dishes to try.
Our advice
If you have only one evening, a walking food tour with several stops is more efficient than running from stall to stall. See also the Hanoi food tour and Hanoi by night. For special diets, see vegetarian and gluten-free in Hanoi.
