As of the 2024 edition, the Atlanta metropolitan area boasts a total of nine restaurants honored with Michelin stars. The Michelin Guides, launched by the French tire manufacturer Michelin in 1900, were initially created to boost tire demand by motivating motorists to explore dining establishments. Over the years, these stars have evolved into a symbol of exceptional culinary achievement.

Restaurants are assessed by anonymous Michelin inspectors who possess a minimum of ten years' experience. Their evaluations focus on five key aspects: "product quality," "expertise in flavor and cooking methods," "the chef's unique influence on the dining encounter," "cost-effectiveness," and "consistency across visits." Following a collective agreement, eateries are awarded between one and three stars: a single star represents "quality cooking worth stopping for," two stars indicate "excellent cuisine meriting a detour," and three stars signify "exceptional gastronomy justifying a special trip." These distinctions are not permanent and undergo continuous reassessment.

The Atlanta guide was introduced on July 11, 2023, marking Atlanta as the seventh U.S. location included in the Michelin Guide. This project is co-financed by the Atlanta Convention and Visitors Bureau, which reportedly contributed $1 million in private funds for a three-year agreement extending through 2025. The first list, revealed on October 24, 2023, featured five restaurants each receiving one Michelin star.

In April 2025, the Atlanta Guide broadened its scope to form the American South Guide, encompassing Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. This growth is backed by Travel South USA to enhance marketing and promotional efforts. The first group of American South restaurants will be announced at an event scheduled for November 3, 2025.
