Chefs can hold a Michelin star for as long as their restaurant maintains the standards required by the Michelin Guide during annual evaluations. If a restaurant's quality declines or it fails to meet the criteria, it can lose its star in subsequent years. Conversely, a restaurant can also gain stars if it improves. Therefore, the duration of holding a star can vary significantly based on consistent performance.

Three is the maximum number of stars any one restaurant can receive.
The restaurant with a star on it is often referred to as a "Michelin-starred" restaurant. These establishments receive stars from the Michelin Guide, which rates the quality of food, service, and overall dining experience. A restaurant can earn one, two, or three stars, with three being the highest accolade, indicating exceptional cuisine worth a special journey. The star system is a prestigious recognition in the culinary world.
Mint in Ranelagh and Bon Appetit in Malahide have recently joined three other Dublin restaurants - Chapter One, L'Ecrivain and Thornton's - with one Michelin star. The Patrick Guilbaud restaurant, also in Dublin, retains its two star status and is the only Irish restaurant to be awarded more than one star.
