"XXXX, una prestigiosa manifestazione che vede alcuni tra i maggiori chef “stellati” d’Italia."
This is the only context I have; I was wondering if others would interpret this as being Michelin stars, or simply top chefs? Thanks :-)

(Michelin-) starred chefs
It isn't clear whether this refers to Michelin or something else, so I'd be tempted to ask your client, but I just wanted to put forward "Michelin-starred chefs" as an option. This tends to be the way it is used in the multitude of programmes on the TV at the moment.
I did find an instance of "starred chefs" being used (without the "Michelin") in the Observer, although I can't say I'm a huge fan: "This year will also see a wave of exciting cooking with a Portuguese and Spanish influence, and starred chefs will drop their dafter flights of fancy in favour of perfecting dishes we know all too well."
Good luck.

Yes, I would interpret this as meaning they are star-rated - and the implication being that the star rating is good ;)
