The MICHELIN Guide User Reviews

Top reviews

No offline mode

There does not appear to be a way to download any info. So if I have no wifi and no data my lists would show up as empty and I cannot search for anything. Also most regions have no physical books so no workaround either.

Requires account creation to browse

Suddenly requires you to give them your contact info and create an account to just browse - even if you don’t intend to use the features they allege require sign-in.
Unless to me now.

Mein Benutzer wird nicht mehr erkannt.

Auf einmal wird mein Benutzerkonto (über Apple registriert) nicht mehr erkannt. Ich müsste mir also mit einer neuen Emailadresse einen neuen Benutzer registrieren. Das mache ich nicht. Kontaktaufnahme zum Support unmöglich, da ich ja nicht mehr in die App komme. Schade. Somit: Adieu Michelin-App!

Response from developer

Das ist für Sie leicht zu lösen. Dies kann auftreten, wenn Sie sich per E-Mail und dann erneut über Google oder Apple angemeldet haben. Sie können uns eine E-Mail an mg-appteam@tablethotels.com senden und wir können Ihnen helfen. Sie können es auch auf der Website versuchen, sich zu verifizieren.

The Michelin Guide is not what it used to be. It’s not worth checking this app for politicized recommendations that are biased and completely inauthentic. The 2026 Florida Awards are perfect example. What a complete scam. You are much better off searching for recommendations elsewhere. No more Michelin for me!

Très bien

Pourquoi les restaurants hors de France sont-ils affublés d’un commentaire en anglais alors que je suis en version française?
Traduisez et restez fidèle à votre langue.
Sinon l’application est très bonne et permet de trouver les lieux « amis » n’importe où dans le monde.

Reinzoomen der Bilder funktioniert nicht einwandfrei

Seit einigen Updates schon funktioniert das Reinzommen von Bildern nicht richtig. Ansonsten eine top App mit guter Übersicht

Better add names in local language

I need Japanese and Chinese hotel names. There’s no option to find them in the app. The translated English names make no sense.

Data harvesting

Forced to have an account to use the app. No thanks. I will just look up information on my privacy-focused browser at home. What a shame to have happened to a once-great app.

Great for finding places to eat!

We’re traveling to multiple countries and found it hard to chose which restaurants to eat at using Google reviews. Adding this app into the mix allows us to find unique places. So far we’ve tried over a dozen places and most have been excellent while the others have been good. We’ve recommended this app for other travels facing similar food choice challenges.
I wish the app had a legend so we could better understand the icons and prices ranges in each country. Also some of the restaurants closures are not always clear in the app when comparing the data with Google.

Lots of improvements

Recent versions are actually usable, because UX has drastically improved, kudos to designers!

Une incompréhensible absence !

Difficile de comprendre pour quelles raisons, les Tables de Gaspard à Saint-Crépin dans les reculées Hautes-Alpes ne figurent toujours pas dans le guide. Le couple très professionnel qui a repris l’établissement en Mai 2024, fait des prouesses et les gourmets sont unanimes «c’est mieux qu’avant… »
A minima, ces nouvelles tables ont leur place dans votre sélection et nous sommes nombreux à penser qu’elles méritent un macaron !

Great when it works

Big stability issues… 50% of the time it wont load and has errors

Account required

Now you have to sign up to view the app… not worth it.

한국어 제발

너무 좋아하는 michelin인데 한국어버전이 없다닛 ㅠㅠ제발 한국어 지원 부탁합니다

Recent update forces users to give personal data

After working decently for many years without requiring account, they've pulled the rug with a recent update and now force you to hand over personal information just to view restaurants.

There is absolutely no reason to suddenly start forcing users to make an account except to harvest their data. If they wanted to use features where an account would be necessary, such as for saving restaurants or leaving reviews, they would obviously just create one.

Edit: the developer responded with straight lies. Accounts were not required before an update shortly before my review; I used it regularly without. The reasons they give are obviously nonsense. Viewing the same information on their website does not require an account. Forcing users to sign up is obviously just a cynical ploy to collect personal data.

Require account

They require an account even for non-account features, like just looking up restaurants! You can’t even try the app without giving them your personal information.

I can see setting up an account IF you want to save favorites or whatever, but this is ridiculous.

Oui mais…

… bientôt un mode sombre ?

Response from developer

Oui!

Uninstalled for requiring email

Like other people who have left reviews, I recently uninstalled this app because it started to insist that I sign in with an email. Notwithstanding the app developer saying they’ve been required for two years, it only recently didn’t let me use the app without an account. Data collection is distasteful, and data minimization is an important principle.

The app developer claims that they don’t do anything with the data. They claim that I have to have an account so that I can save restaurants or something. I don’t need those features, and I don’t need this app. Very distasteful to me.

Bring back Green!

It’s so disappointing that you can no longer filter on green starred restaurants. It seems that sustainability is taking a step back in Michelins priorities which is madness given the current climate.

Personal data

I was really turned off by the need to create an account
