Which Saint-Tropez restaurants have a Michelin star in 2020?

The 2020 Michelin Guide for France was unveiled on January 27th. The country boasts a whopping 628 Michelin-starred restaurants, 86 of them located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, where Saint-Tropez is located.

Five of them have the maximum distinction, three Michelin stars, including the already triple-laureated Mirazur in Menton, Le Louis XV in Monaco, Monte Cristo at the Hôtel du Castellet in the Var region of Provence, La Vague d'Or in Saint-Tropez and Le Petit Nice in Marseille. The gourmet restaurant L'Ostau de Baumanière, in the charming Provencal village of Les Baux deep within the Bouches-du-Rhône area, got its third star this year as well as a "Sustainable Gastronomy" distinction.

There is also a new two-star establishment in the 2020 Michelin Guide: La Voile situated in the Hôtel La Réserve in Ramatuelle, Saint-Tropez's most famous beach village. Many eateries in Provence and the French Riviera have maintained their two stars this year, including La Palme d'Or in Cannes' Hotel Martinez, Villa Archange in Le Cannet, Château de la Chèvre d'Or in Eze, Hostellerie Jérôme in La Turbie and Joel Robuchon in Monte-Carlo.
