Since debuting in Doha in 2024, the Michelin Guide has awarded just a handful of restaurants across the city. In its inaugural edition, IDAM by Alain Ducasse and Jamavar each earned one Michelin star, while four restaurants received a Bib Gourmand and 27 establishments were highlighted for “good cooking”, marking them as rising stars in the local dining scene.

Expanding its footprint across the GCC region, the Michelin Guide is also present in Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the UAE, and recently launched in Saudi Arabia. 

Michelin unveiled the first part of its inaugural Michelin Guide on 15 October 2025, revealing the Bib Gourmand winners, three restaurants in Riyadh and one in AlUla. Further awards are set to be revealed in stages on 15 November and 15 December.
