From a Manhattan sushi counter to a twelve-seat dinner show in Ibiza, this 10-minute documentary ranks the ten most expensive restaurants on Earth by their current set-menu price per person. Real stock footage and Wikimedia Commons photos, with animated price counters, map pins, stat callouts, a price ladder for every entry and a final leaderboard.

In this video: #10 Per Se, New York ($425) #9 Le Louis XV, Monaco (€420, about $470) #8 Kitcho Arashiyama, Kyoto (¥66,000-79,200, about $500) #7 Plénitude, Paris (€495, about $550) #6 Noma, Copenhagen (DKK 4,500, about $670) #5 Geranium, Copenhagen (DKK 4,500, about $670) #4 Alchemist, Copenhagen (DKK 5,600, about $835) #3 Guy Savoy, Paris (€760, about $850) #2 Masa, New York ($750-950) #1 Sublimotion, Ibiza (€1,650, about $1,840)

All prices were checked in October 2026 and converted to US dollars at the ECB rates of 27 October 2026. The ranking uses each restaurant's set-menu price per person before drinks; Sublimotion's price includes drinks and tax, and Kitcho Arashiyama's includes tax and service. Prices change often, so treat them as approximate.
