Guide Michelin: Michelin-starred restaurants in Tyrol

The difference between the MICHELIN stars and Gault&Millau toques lies in the rating systems and focal points. While the MICHELIN stars stand for the highest culinary excellence internationally and evaluate the overall experience (cuisine, service, ambience), Gault&Millau focuses more on the cuisine and creativity of the dishes, especially in regional markets. Michelin works with an anonymous rating system, while Gault&Millau often tests openly. Stars are the global symbol of culinary excellence, while toques are an important regional recognition.

Prices vary depending on the restaurant and menu. In Tyrolean MICHELIN restaurants, 3-course menus often start at around 100 euros, while more extensive tasting menus with wine pairing can cost 200 euros or more. Many restaurants also offer seasonal or regional specialities.

MICHELIN restaurants in Tyrol combine excellent cuisine with the special atmosphere of the Alpine region. Many chefs focus on regional ingredients, such as local game, Alpine prawns or herbs from the mountains, and combine these with modern or international cuisine.
