2015 Michelin Stars For New York City Are Here

The Michelin Guide is the longest running, and most established, restaurant ratings service in the world. It started in France in 1900 and now publishes 24 guides around the world. London has its own guide, as does Tokyo, Chicago, San Francisco, Germany and Spain. France takes its little red book the most seriously, and rightly so. It's the O.G. and most influential in a country that counts dining out as a national pastime.

But what about New York City, which started publishing a guide in 2005? We'd say that outside of the weekly New York Times review, Michelin is the most influential — particularly for those restaurants awarded three stars (the highest rating possible). Gaining, or losing, a star can greatly impact business, which is why you will find many of the city's top chefs basically freaking out when the stars are announced, which happened this afternoon. Here are the results. Eater has some deep analysis.
