Michelin Guide Dubai 2026: Orfali Bros Earns Two Stars, Two New Starred Restaurants
Michelin unveiled the fifth edition of its gastronomic guide dedicated to Dubai at a ceremony held at Atlantis The Royal with its destination partner, Dubai's Department of Economy and Tourism (DET). According to Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the Michelin Guides, the selection now features "nearly twice as many establishments" as at its launch, and the group took the opportunity to reveal a new global editorial platform, Mindful Voices.
Two Three-Star Tables, 19 New Entries in the Selection
The 2026 selection covers 38 types of cuisine. It is distributed among 2 three-star restaurants, 4 two-star restaurants, 14 one-star restaurants, 22 Bib Gourmand establishments and 80 Michelin-Selected category establishments. The 19 new entries include 2 one-star restaurants, 4 Bib Gourmand establishments and 13 Michelin-Selected restaurants.
FZN by Björn Frantzén and Trèsind Studio retained their three stars. Orfali Bros was promoted to two stars, two years after earning its first star, joining Il Ristorante-Niko Romito, Row on 45 and Stay by Yannick Alléno, which maintained their distinction.
Birch, led by chef Arslan Berdiev, and Kigo, dedicated to seasonal Japanese cuisine, made their entrance with one star. They join the 12 restaurants that retained theirs. According to the guide, the new entries reflect the growth of independent concepts and menus increasingly tailored to the local clientele.

Risks mentioned
Faiblesse persistante de la Première monte, qui fait reculer les volumes pneumatiques du Groupe de 0,8 % à fin septembre, en particulier en Tourisme Camionnette en Europe et en Amérique du Nord (en Chine, les ventes du Groupe progressent sur un marché en recul de 7 %)
Concurrence des pneumatiques importés à bas prix, notamment d'Asie, qui pèse sur les marques Tier 2 en Amérique du Nord, Tier 3 dans les principales régions et sur le Poids lourd en Amérique du Sud
Faiblesse persistante des Convoyeurs, liée à la prudence des clients miniers en matière de dépenses et à la faiblesse du marché du minerai de fer, notamment en Australie
Opportunities identified
Expansion de Polymer Composite Solutions soutenue par les acquisitions de Cooley Group, Flexitallic et TexTech en 2026 (chiffre d'affaires +21,9 % publié, -2,7 % hors effet de périmètre à cause des Convoyeurs)
Activité Mines en croissance, avec des gains de parts de marché, qui compense la pression sur le Hors-la-route (segment Spécialités -0,9 % publié, +0,4 % à périmètre comparable)
Dynamique positive de la marque MICHELIN en Remplacement avec volume de +4% en fin septembre
