Texas Michelin Guide Adds Three One-Star Restaurants

The 2026 MICHELIN Guide added three one-star restaurants in Texas, bringing the statewide total to 19. The new stars went to Austin's plant-based Fabrik, Austin's French-Japanese Kappo Kappo, and Fort Worth's Goldee's Bar-B-Q, the city's first starred restaurant. Austin leads with seven starred restaurants. Houston retained six stars but gained no new ones, and Dallas and San Antonio had no new stars. The guide recognized 149 Texas restaurants overall, adding six Bib Gourmands and 16 recommended restaurants. The 2026 Texas selections were announced digitally rather than via an in-person ceremony. No factual disputes over the restaurant names, star counts, or city totals appear in the record. The record contains no named people and no verbatim quotes. Next steps for the Texas Michelin Guide are not stated in the record.
