MICHELIN Guide Inspectors spend the entire year on the road seeking out the best restaurants to recommend — and what they’ve found is too good to keep a secret. While our distinctions — Stars and Bib Gourmands — are only revealed at the annual ceremony, new restaurants are added to the Selection twice a year.
These new establishments are featured on our website and on the MICHELIN Guide mobile app (available on iOS and Android), and will be highlighted with a “New” symbol to make them easy to spot.

Brooklyn – Clinton Hill
Entre Nous
Stop by this Clinton Hill wine bar for a glass of wine and a snack or settle in for a longer meal with friends — it's equally well suited to both occasions. It's a warm and inviting spot, with a copper bar wrapped in cherry wood. The natural wine program is impressive (the wall of bottles is a hint), and the food exceeds expectations. Learn more.
Los Burritos Juárez
This burrito shop in Fort Greene specializes in regional burritos rarely seen in New York, specifically the border style of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. It's simple with a short menu, but the rewards are rich. Learn more.
Brooklyn – Crown Heights
Bong
This Crown Heights spot is quickly becoming a neighborhood favorite, and while reservations are difficult to get, those who arrive early can usually find a counter seat. The lively atmosphere and the shared plates-style menu of Cambodian cuisine make it a good bet for a group. Learn more.
Brooklyn – Park Slope
Vato
The team behind Manhattan's MICHELIN-Starred Corima has opened this daytime tortilleria in Park Slope, and it's clear from the first bite that they've poured their heart into these house-made flour tortilla burritos. It's a casual spot, where guests order at the counter before finding a seat. Learn more.
Brooklyn – Williamsburg
I Cavallini
Just across from sibling, The Four Horsemen, Chef Nick Curtola shifts gears at I Cavallini, offering an Italian menu rooted in tradition with skill and confidence. Service is warm and attentive echoing the relaxed sophistication of the setting. Reservations are highly coveted, but walk-ins are given a seat at the bar with views of the action. Learn more.
