2026-09-28

Hanoi’s 2026 MICHELIN list has 4 one-star restaurants and 22 Bib Gourmand picks, 64 in total including the Selected restaurants.
This guide lists all 4 stars and all 22 Bib Gourmand places, each with its address, what it cooks and a Google Maps link, so you do not have to compare a dozen blog posts.

Compiled from the official MICHELIN Guide website, 2026 edition (updated 4 June 2026, checked September 2026). Openings and closures follow the guide and each restaurant’s own announcements.

A few things first
  • We went through the 2026 Hanoi list on the official MICHELIN Guide website one restaurant at a time.
  • Book ahead for the starred and sit-down restaurants; the Bib Gourmand street food shops are walk-in only and busiest in the morning.

Stars, Bib Gourmand and Selected: what is the difference?

The MICHELIN Guide arrived in Vietnam in 2023, with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in the first edition. The list is re-evaluated every year, and the 2026 edition was updated in June.

You will see three marks on the list, and they mean different things:

  • Stars (⭐): for the cooking. One star means high quality, worth a stop. Hanoi has 4 one-star restaurants and no two- or three-star ones.
  • Bib Gourmand: good quality at a friendly price. Hanoi has 22, mostly long-running pho and bun cha shops.
  • MICHELIN Selected: inspected and recommended, but without a star or a Bib this year. Hanoi has 38.

So a Bib Gourmand is not a lesser star; they are judged separately. Go by stars for a special meal and by Bib Gourmand for everyday Hanoi flavours.

Hanoi MICHELIN Star restaurants 2026 (4)

The four go in different directions: two Vietnamese, one teppanyaki, one Korean. If you want one proper dinner in Hanoi, pick from here.

⭐ Hibana by Koki1 MICHELIN Star For a teppanyaki dinner in a quiet, private setting Teppanyaki
Capella Hanoi, B1, 11 Le Phung Hieu Street (Hoan Kiem)📍 Address ⭐ ONVIT1 MICHELIN Star If you are staying in the new districts and want refined Korean food Modern Korean
Grand Plaza Hotel, 3F, 117 Tran Duy Hung Street (new districts)📍 Address ⭐ Gia1 MICHELIN Star Right by the Temple of Literature, for a Vietnamese tasting menu Modern Vietnamese
61 Van Mieu Street, opposite the Temple of Literature📍 Address ⭐ Tầm Vị1 MICHELIN Star A first star that still tastes like northern home cooking Vietnamese home cooking
4B Yen The Street (Ba Dinh, near the Military History Museum)📍 Address

Gia and Tầm Vị both serve Vietnamese food and are where most first-timers start. Hibana by Koki sits inside a hotel and has few seats; ONVIT is in the new districts, about 20 to 30 minutes by car from the Old Quarter.

Hanoi Bib Gourmand 2026 (all 22)

These 22 are the easiest part of the list to plan around: most are small shops where you sit down and order one bowl. They are grouped below by what they serve.

55 Nguyen Du Street (south of Hoan Kiem)📍 Address 🍜 HabakukBib Gourmand For a night off from Vietnamese food Modern European
Alley 4, Phan Huy Chu Street (Hoan Kiem)📍 Address

Several of them share a street: the eel noodles and the Mekong restaurant on Hang Dieu, the pho on Bat Dan. Eating as you walk the Old Quarter is easier than making a special trip for each one.

First time in Hanoi: which should you pick?

  • For a celebration or a special evening: go for a star, book ahead, and arrange your ride home in advance.
  • For local flavours on a light budget: go for the Bib Gourmand shops. You can fit two or three into one day.
  • With older relatives or children: pick the home-cooking restaurants with seats and air conditioning, such as Luk Lak, Hà Thành Mansion or Xới Cơm.
  • Vegetarian: Ưu Đàm is the vegetarian entry on the list.
  • Something different: Habakuk serves modern European food, a good break after several days of Vietnamese meals.

A one-day Old Quarter street food route

The Bib Gourmand shops cluster in Hoan Kiem, so walking is the easiest way. This is the order we usually suggest:

Morning: a bowl of beef pho on Bat Dan Street, then the 36 Old Streets

Late morning: banh cuon on Hang Ga Street, then walk down to Hoan Kiem Lake

Lunch: bun cha (Bun Cha Ta has seats and air conditioning, handy in the middle of the day)

Afternoon: egg coffee or a lakeside cafe, out of the hottest hours

Evening: turmeric fish grilled at your table, or a starred restaurant

Small shops keep their own hours and a midday break is normal. Every dish on the list has two or three options, so if one is closed, try the next one nearby.

For how the Old Quarter is laid out and what each street sells, see our guide to Hanoi’s 36 Old Streets.

Before you go

  • Bring cash: most street food shops are cash only, so change some small notes first. See our Vietnam money guide.
  • Seating: tables and stools at the old shops are small and sharing a table is normal, so leave your luggage behind.
  • Timing: pho and banh cuon shops close once they sell out, so go early.
  • Dress: you will feel more comfortable dressed neatly at the starred restaurants, especially the teppanyaki and hotel ones.
  • The list changes: MICHELIN re-evaluates every year, and addresses and opening hours change too. Check again before you go.

Fitting MICHELIN meals into your Hanoi trip

The Old Quarter places are within walking distance of each other. Crossing districts is the harder part: Gia by the Temple of Literature, Tầm Vị in Ba Dinh, Chào Bạn by West Lake and ONVIT in the new districts are all some way apart, and dinner usually ends right when rides are hardest to get.

Hanoi MICHELIN FAQ

How many MICHELIN restaurants are there in Hanoi in 2026?
According to the MICHELIN Guide website, Hanoi currently has 64 listed restaurants: 4 with one MICHELIN Star, 22 with a Bib Gourmand and 38 MICHELIN Selected. There are no two- or three-star restaurants in Hanoi.
Which restaurants in Hanoi have a MICHELIN Star?
There are four: Hibana by Koki (teppanyaki), ONVIT (modern Korean), Gia (modern Vietnamese) and Tầm Vị (Vietnamese home cooking). Gia and Tầm Vị serve Vietnamese food, so first-timers usually start with those two.
What is the difference between a MICHELIN Star and a Bib Gourmand?
Stars rate the cooking, and one star means a very good restaurant worth a stop. The Bib Gourmand goes to places offering good quality at a friendly price, and in Hanoi most of them are long-running pho and bun cha shops. They are two separate awards, not a ranking.
Do I need a reservation at MICHELIN restaurants in Hanoi?
Book ahead for the starred restaurants and for sit-down places, especially at dinner. Most Bib Gourmand street food shops do not take reservations; you queue on the spot, and breakfast and lunch are the busiest. Check with each restaurant for their current policy.
Which area are the Bib Gourmand restaurants in?
Most are in the Old Quarter in Hoan Kiem. On streets like Hang Dieu, Hang Ga and Bat Dan you can walk between several of them. There are also a few in Ba Dinh, around West Lake and in the Hai Ba Trung area.
How do I fit several MICHELIN meals into one day?
Pho for breakfast, the Old Quarter in the morning, bun cha for lunch, egg coffee in the afternoon, then a starred or sit-down restaurant in the evening. The Old Quarter places are close together and easiest on foot; if you cross to Ba Dinh, West Lake or the new districts, a private car saves you hailing a ride for every leg.
