For the first time in the history of Tatler Dining, dozens of the F&B industry's most important leaders and tastemakers have chosen the 20 best restaurants in Macau that were awarded at this year’s Tatler Dining Awards
Each edition of the Tatler Dining Guide unveils a new Tatler Dining 20 list of Hong Kong’s best restaurants, and on the 40th anniversary of our annual flagship publication, we've identified a new class of 2024—as well as expanding the category to cover 20 of Macau’s finest.
This year, we have dramatically reimagined how the Tatler Dining Awards are decided upon. To begin, we have greatly broadened our panel of dining experts—consisting of industry leaders, tastemakers and prolific and highly opinionated diners—who have contributed their picks of the best restaurants they ate at in the past 12 months. Using a 100-point scoring system, where each restaurant is assigned between one to five points each, the panel is able to select a wider breadth of restaurants across the entire dining spectrum, from family-run neighbourhood spots to sky-high fine-dining, regardless of whether they have the requisite marketing budget, resulting in a more equitable representation of how our readers dine out today.
Purchase the Tatler Dining Guide at all good bookstores or online here, and check out our Guides page for more good eats.
With a renewed surge in interest in Macau's dining scene, we've also made the decision to bestow the city with its very first Top 20 list, which identifies the establishments offering something above and beyond, whether it is a significant contribution to the dining scene through their work, an undeniable sense of representing the culinary zeitgeist, or simply offering that deeper sense of irreplaceability.
Ultimately, our collection here is a snapshot of the Hong Kong dining scene at a moment in time—the beauty of a vibrant industry like the one we have here is one that should be continuously celebrated. Continue scrolling to read more about the class of 2024.

Robuchon au Dome certainly has an aura of the untouchable, thanks to the name as well as the elevated (quite literally) dining experience under the dome at the peak of the Grand Lisboa. Ever since Macau opened up again, Hongkongers are finding out that standards have hardly slipped over the course of the pandemic; and with Julien Tongourian at the helm (who also heads up L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon Hong Kong), it’s the kind of big-ticket gastronomy that diners are craving again—and which Robuchon au Dome delivers in spades.
