This year, La Maison 1888 restaurant (InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort) maintained its 1 Michelin star; similarly, Nen restaurant maintained its Michelin Green Star position. Meanwhile, new establishments added to the Bib Gourmand 2025 award list, Da Nang accounted for 4/9 establishments; new establishments added to the Michelin Selected 2025 award list, Da Nang had 3/14 establishments.

According to the assessment of Michelin Guide experts, new names of Da Nang appearing in the Michelin Guide 2025 list such as Banh Xeo 76, Bun Bo Hue Ba Thuong, Que Xua, Shamballa, Bep Cuon, Bun Rieu Cua 39, Moc are establishments serving excellent dishes at affordable prices, with stability and sophistication in culinary skills. Michelin Guide cited that Bun Bo Hue Ba Thuong has satisfied local diners for over 50 years with its rich Hue beef noodle soup, cooked from Hue's signature spicy broth with the fragrant aroma of lemongrass, tender beef, chewy noodles, served with herbs and raw vegetables.

Meanwhile, Que Xua demonstrates the rich traditional Vietnamese cuisine, the straw chandelier and rustic paintings add a rustic charm to the space; Shamballa offers a peaceful vegetarian space to temporarily escape the hustle and bustle of life, passing through the time-stained wooden door, diners will encounter Tibetan items and a vegetarian menu built on the foundation of Vietnamese flavors and local cooking techniques...

Mr. Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of Michelin Guide, said that Vietnamese cuisine is rich and has a unique identity. If Ho Chi Minh City, with its dynamic, open and diverse culinary experience, always welcomes chefs and influential figures on an international scale, Hanoi and Da Nang continue to shine with their rustic cuisine, imbued with local identity.

The Michelin Guide 2025 list reflects the diversity of culinary experiences, recognizing dining establishments with delicious dishes, worthy of the price and contributing to positioning Vietnam as an unmissable destination for world food lovers.

“This year, we are proud to see an increase in the number of dining establishments and talented chefs. Many of them have returned to their roots, combining modern cooking techniques to tell the stories of their homeland and rediscover the flavors of their childhood. At the same time, street food stalls, family-run eateries, and long-standing dining establishments still focus on preserving culinary traditions with authenticity and passion. This 2025 announcement continues to affirm Vietnam’s growing position on the journey to becoming a global culinary destination,” said Mr. Gwendal Poullennec.

According to Ms. Truong Thi Hong Hanh, Director of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Da Nang cuisine has received more attention from domestic and international media and tourists since June 2024, when the world-recognized culinary guide Michelin Guide listed Da Nang as the third Michelin Guide culinary destination in Vietnam.

In 2025, Da Nang was listed in the list of 10 culinary destinations to visit in 2025 by Michelin Guide, along with cities around the world such as Austin and Miami (USA), Mexico City (Mexico), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Bangkok (Thailand), Fujian (China), Osaka (Japan), Bath (UK) and Vienna (Austria). According to the recently announced Michelin Guide 2025 list, many dining establishments in Da Nang still affirm their position and some new establishments have appeared.

At the same time, Michelin's choice of Da Nang to organize the event to announce the list of Michelin Guide 2025 dining establishments is an opportunity for the tourism industry to promote and spread the experience values, the unique values of Da Nang and Vietnamese cuisine to the world; contributing to the implementation of the strategy of developing cuisine into a unique tourism product.
