Despite the fact that restaurants in France were closed for much of 2020, Michelin carried on with its annual ratings in 2021, just as it has, with a few exceptions, since the year 1900. (The history of Michelin restaurant ratings is here.)
And now the new 2022 guide has just come out and once again, because I live to please you, I've
compiled a list of all the starred restaurants across Provence, the Côte d'Azur
and Monaco for you.
The big news this year is the awarding of three stars to La Villa Madie in Cassis. The seafront restaurant has joins an esteemed group and brings the number of Michelin three stars here in the PACA region (Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur) to seven. The other six are: chef Alexandre Mazzia at AM par Alexandre Mazzia in Marseille, chef Glenn Viel at Baumaniere in Les Baux (which lost its third star in 1990 and got it back in 2020); Argentine chef Mauro Colagreco at Mirazur in Menton; Christophe Bacquié's restaurant at the Hôtel du Castellet in the Var; Gérald Passedat's Le Petit Nice in Marseille; and La Vague d'Or at the Résidence de la Pinède in Saint Tropez with chef Arnaud Donckele at the helm. And of course down in Monte-Carlo, there's superstar chef Alain Ducasse, who has carried three-stars at Le Louis XV in the Hotel de Paris since 1990.
Other than Villa Madie, there was just one other new three star named in all of France this year: Plénitude at the Cheval Blanc Hotel in Paris.
Last year, Michelin unveiled a new "Green Star" for restaurants at the forefront of sustainability. This year 87 restaurants nationwide were recognized for their use of local foods and practices that preserve natural resources, protect ecological diversity and reduce waste. For 2022 there are nine green stars in the PACA region and you'll see them designated as such below.
As in years past, Michelin has also designated some
un-starred restaurants with its "Bib Gourmand," meaning good food at
low prices. There are now 449 Bib Gourmands nationwide. The newest list of Bib Gourmand restaurants in PACA is here...and the
nationwide list is here. The loose
rule is you should be able to have a three-course meal (starter, main, dessert)
for 36€ or less in Europe and $40 or less in the US.

And finally, below you'll find a complete list of all the Michelin-starred restaurants in the PACA region for 2022, with their current star rating and a link to their website where possible. Monaco appears at the end.
