The California Michelin Guide has added seven new Southern California restaurants as potential star candidates for the upcoming ceremony on June 25, 2025, in Sacramento. Four of the new entries are in San Diego, including Atelier Manna, Lilo, Tanner's Prime Burgers, and 24 Suns. While only four local restaurants possess Michelin stars, Lilo is seen as particularly promising due to its unique tasting menu concept. The previous year's ceremony resulted in no new stars for San Diego, emphasizing the competitive nature of these prestigious culinary awards.
Atelier Manna is a breakfast and lunch destination, offering a new dining option in Encinitas, while Lilo presents an ambitious tasting menu in Carlsbad.
Out of the new additions, Lilo looks to be the most likely one to receive a star (or two), considering its format of thoughtful tasting menus.
