The process for deciding which restaurants receive a Michelin star begins with anonymous inspectors. These inspectors may visit the same restaurant a few times and, without taking notes, will rate the quality of the ingredients, cooking methods, presentation, and taste of each meal. Along with other inspectors who also visited the restaurant, they will review its overall quality together and give a rating of zero to three stars. When the Michelin Guide first began using stars in its restaurant listings in 1926, it was simply to approve of an establishment as a very good restaurant.
决定哪些餐厅获得米其林星级的过程始于匿名的视察员。这些视察员可能会多次光顾同一间餐厅，并且在不做笔记的情况下，对每道餐点的食材品质、烹饪方法、摆盘和味道进行评分。他们会与其他也到访该餐厅的视察员一同审查餐厅的整体品质，并给出零到三颗星的评价。1926 年，《米其林指南》首度在其餐厅清单中使用星级时，只是为了认同一间店家是非常好的餐厅。
