In the 2024 edition of the Michelin Guide, a total of 49 establishments in Taiwan were honored with Michelin stars. Since its inception in 1900 by the French tire manufacturer Michelin, the Michelin Guides were initially created to boost tire sales by motivating motorists to travel more extensively. Over the years, however, Michelin stars have become highly coveted symbols of culinary excellence.

Prior to granting stars, experienced anonymous inspectors—each with a minimum of ten years in the field—conduct multiple evaluations of restaurants. Their assessments are based on five key factors: ingredient quality, skillful flavor and technique execution, the chef’s unique expression within the dining experience, flavor balance, and consistency over repeated visits. The star ratings range from one star ("high-quality cooking, worth a stop") to three stars ("exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey"). These distinctions are re-evaluated annually and may be withdrawn if a restaurant’s standards decline.

The first Michelin Guide covering Taipei was published in 2018, marking it as the eighth Asian city or region featured after Tokyo, Hong Kong and Macau, Osaka and Kyoto, Singapore, Shanghai, Seoul, and Bangkok. The guide expanded its reach to Taichung in 2020 and further included Tainan and Kaohsiung in 2022. For 2025, the guide plans to broaden its scope to incorporate New Taipei City, Hsinchu County, and Hsinchu City.
