Overview
- An official November 5, 2025 inspection found management of food safety required major improvement and facilities needed cleaning upgrades, while food handling was judged generally satisfactory.
- The Food Standards Agency record currently lists Ynyshir at one out of five, with the rating still in place as of January 10, 2026.
- Ynyshir says its Japanese‑influenced preparation methods differ from conventional kitchens and provided context for aspects of the inspection findings.
- The venue retains two Michelin stars and is known for an extended tasting menu of roughly 30-plus courses priced from about £468 per person.
- TV chef James Martin praised Ynyshir as exceptional and predicted it could gain a third Michelin star, a view presented as his opinion rather than a confirmed outcome.
