Jashan in Plano<\/a> is one of the latest restaurants to earn Michelin Recommended status, after being open just shy of a year. It was also the only restaurant in Plano<\/a> on Michelin\u2019s 2026 list.<\/p>\n

The honor left owner Prasanna Singaraju overwhelmed with joy, he told The Dallas Morning News.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m feeling very grateful,\u201d he said. \u201cI used to dream of this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michelin released its 2026 guide for Texas<\/a> on Oct. 8. Two Dallas restaurants, Tatsu and Mamani, retained their 1-star status. Goldee’s Barbecue in Fort Worth is the new North Texas restaurant to reach 1-star status<\/a> this year. There are 24 North Texas restaurants that made Michelin\u2019s Recommended list this year, five of which are newcomers, including Jashan.<\/p>\n

Recommended restaurants are eateries worthy of attention, but they don’t meet Michelin’s rigorous standards for 1-, 2- or 3-star status, and they weren’t chosen for the Bib Gourmand, which notes “simple yet skillful cooking,” and often at an affordable price.<\/p>\n

Jashan receiving the honor came as a surprise, Singaraju said, but it was certainly a pleasant one. \u201cYou work towards something,\u201d he said. \u201cYou want to do the absolute best you can with guest experience, the food, the quality, the ingredients and everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

After 21 years working in tech, Singaraju, who\u2019s also a recent culinary school graduate, decided to chase his dreams and open Jashan in November 2025.<\/p>\n

At Jashan, diners can order dinner \u00e0 la carte or opt for a multicourse<\/a> modern tasting menu for $175. Curated by Singaraju and executive chef Ramesh Thangaraj, the restaurant\u2019s menu includes classic Indian dishes like butter chicken and chicken\u00a0biryani as well as more upscale options. For diners who choose the tasting experience, the food is presented omakase-style, which is a Japanese form of dining where the diner allows the chef to select each course.<\/p>\n

Other North Texas newcomers on the Michelin Recommended list include Fond,\u00a0Ol\u014dy\u014d, M\u0101bo and Lucia, which was previously on the Bib Gourmand<\/a> list.<\/p>\n

\u201cCongratulations to everyone else that got their recognition,\u201d Singaraju said. \u201cI’m very proud of the way that Texas and D-FW are embracing new food. I\u2019m really excited for what’s to come for D-FW in general as far as the culinary scene. Super thrilled for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michelin has awarded stars for 100 years, and it released its first Guide of best bets in Texas in 2024. Michelin\u2019s three-year contract with Travel Texas and five cities\u2019 visitors bureaus<\/a> ended with the Oct. 8 announcement, so the status of Michelin Guide returning to Texas in 2027 is unknown.<\/p>\n

Jashan is at 7401 Lone Star Drive, Suite B 120, Plano. jashan.us<\/a>.<\/p>\n
