Description: Accredited with 3 AA Rosettes and 2 Michelin Stars for its exceptional fine dining, The Ledbury is an award-winning French restaurant in London's cosmopolitan Notting Hill district. Established by famed restaurateur Nigel Platts-Martin and Philip Howard, The Ledbury offers first class menus crafted by skilled Australian chef Brett Graham. Delicately presented, each mouth-watering course is comparable to a feast. Diners can indulge themselves with dishes such as Roast Scallops with Pumpkin and Mandarin Purée, Trompettes and Ginger, followed by Crisp Pressed Suckling Pig with Mangosteens, Mollasses, Salsify and Ham Beignet, before finishing with a light Trio of Small Crème Brulees with Ice Cream and Madeleines. The service is attentive yet never overbearing, with the knowledgeable staff always ready to assist and the expert sommelier able to suggest a wine to accompany any dish. For an intimate ambience and outstanding meal in one of London's most affluent areas, The Ledbury offers a consistently high standard every time.

The reviews for this place are correct staff are well trained food is bought out at a good pace. I suggest to have the degustation as it gives you a taste of everything without being over full at the end. It is expensive but i would say value for money for the quality . Just go you will not be... More

My partner and I dined here for lunch on a Friday. We both had the set lunch. An excellent set menu. The food was superb. I had the Pork cheek which was really good, she had the fish, which was again exceptional. Service was stand out, as you would expect it to be. The best thing was the wine list.... More

I had to book this restaurant well in advance and it was worth having to plan our trip around the reservation! From the moment we stepped out of the taxi we were warmly welcomed. There was no stuffiness, no superior attitude, only genuine hospitality. The tasting menu was superb, the stand out for me was the Berkshire muntjac and the... More

We came here after a recommendation from an Australian 'Londoner' who told us it was one of the best restaurants in London, and it was truly memorable!! The sommelier was so helpful and I recommend putting yourself in her hands- as the wine we drank was beautiful! The entire meal was perfect, plates were like works of art, the food... More

Good food but why I found little cold service by service staffs every time when visited. But that may be a standard of good restaurant rather than friendly or too homely. Their tasting menus are great even though the famous mackerel was bit too salty for me, rest of them are well balanced flavours, so I could bear with their... More

We had sunday lunch there last week. The staff were wonderfully attentive without being too visible. The food was as expected delicious and the suggestions of the sommelier were ideal for our choices. Will definitely return for more.

Absolutely perfect. Amazing food, elegant setting and friendly, knowledgeable staff. We had a fantastic dining experience and were even given a tour of the kitchen and introduced to Brett Graham who took time from his frantic schedule to tell us his amazing story. We highly recommend the Ledbury as a " must do " !
