Michelin, famous for its restaurant guides since the early 1900s, has made its star ratings synonymous with high-end dining. While some of these establishments cost more than a month’s groceries, others offer a three-star experience without the hefty price tag. Here's a look at the least and most expensive Michelin Three-Star restaurants.
After examining set menu prices at three-star Michelin restaurants worldwide, Money.co.uk has highlighted the most budget-friendly and the priciest options. Asia stands out as a prime destination for affordable fine dining, with Beijing's King's Joy being the cheapest, offering a pre-fixe meal for just $104. Other affordable spots include Hong Kong's Lung King Heen and Nakashima in Hiroshima, Japan.
The priciest Michelin Three-Star restaurant in the world is in Paris, France. Dining at Guy Savoy will cost $552 per person. Arpège and Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, also in Paris, are also among the top 10 most expensive three-star spots. While the U.S. is not featured on the affordable list, New York’s Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare ranks seventh in terms of cost, with dinner priced at $408 per guest.

For those looking for incredibly cheap Michelin-recognized food, you’ll have to go for a lower rating. In 2016, a street food vendor in Singapore selling $1.50 chicken dishes earned a Michelin star.
