FZN by Björn Frantzén, located at Atlantis, The Palm, has made an extraordinary debut by earning three Michelin stars in the 2025 Michelin Guide Dubai—less than a year after opening in November 2024

This marks the highest new entry in the guide and makes Björn Frantzén the only chef in the world currently holding three Michelin three-star restaurants. Helmed by Frantzén and Executive Chef Torsten Vildgaard, FZN offers a nine-course tasting menu that fuses modern European cuisine with Japanese influences, delivered through a multi-sensory, immersive experience.

Björn Frantzén said, “This recognition is an incredible honour, not just for me, but my entire team. Receiving three Michelin stars for FZN is a proud moment for us and reflects the hard work and creativity of everyone involved. We always knew we wanted to launch a restaurant in Dubai, and selecting the right partner was paramount. We are grateful to the Atlantis Dubai team for supporting our journey and helping to bring to life our vision.”

The restaurant has already received widespread acclaim, including Gault&Millau UAE’s Breakthrough Restaurant of the Year and five awards from Star Wine List of the Year.
