    We tried the tasting menu and it was great, worth every penny! The atmosphere is quite prentencious but who can judge them - it's 2 Michelin stars we're talking! Loved the whole neighbourhood!!

    Chef Brett Graham prepares you a fantastic meal that is worth more than Michelin two stars. Deer, truffle toast and the quail! One of the best dishes in London. Must reserve early!

    Am planning on returning again. Had the tasting menu and I loved every dish except for the desserts. The hen of the woods exploded with flavors in your mouth as did the beef dish. Defo a go!

    Fantastic tasting and wine menu. They will usually do something a little extra if it's a special occasion. Probably better enjoyed as a long lunch rather than dinner.

    Get the tasting menu. If you ask nicely, they sometimes let you take a peek at the kitchen. The bread and delicious goats' milk butter are addictive -- but go easy since the rest of the meal is huge!

    Scallop carpaccio and short rib with bone marrow and celeriac creme were so delicious. Desserts and cheese platter accompanied by great wine selection...next time I'll go for tasting menu!

    Food and service was flawless. The best fine dining restaurant I've experienced. We were lucky enough to meet Brett Graham who was so down-to-earth and doing Aussie's proud with his memorable dishes.

    Outstanding in every way. The set menu for lunch is a great experience at a slight discount from dinner. Service is exceptional.

    Incredible food, possibly the best in London! The lunch menu at £50 for 4 courses is not bad value. I went for my birthday and they even gave me a bonus banana cake!

    Superb restaurant in Notting Hill with a real mix of dishes and cultural influences from British classics like smoked eel and Cumbrian lamb to tokyo turnips and bresse chicken and black truffle.

    Fancy, Michelin l, the whole nine yards. The problem is this is an acquired taste restaurant as majority of the disks are "different". Overall, good

    Delicious food, friendly staff, and cozy environment. Menu features 6 or 8 courses and changes daily. Fare is somewhere between Mediterranean and (lighter) British.

    6 or 8 course dinner menu. The food is actually impressive, yet the environment could be cozier. Staff was attentive, but for the price and the amount of Michellin stars, I've visited better places.

    Superb. One of the best meals we have ever had. We went for matching wines which made it a pricey night but worth every penny.

    Its 3-course menu will cost you around £80 per head, but you can't argue with flame-grilled mackerel with pickled cucumber or native lobster with tomato butter and basil.

    I have eaten at over 50 Michelin star restaurants and for the raves that The Ledbury has received, I was truly disappointed. The oyster starter left a gruesome taste in my mouth, not recommended.

    Australian chef Brett Graham wows Notting Hill with food that is not overly pretentious, but bold in flavor. You must do the wine pairing with your meal!

    We're lucky to have this two Michelin star restaurant in our area. Their menu isn't the cheapest, but you won't find better, higher quality food.

    The service and the food have not improved over time, to say the least. 6 months ago you had a full cheese trolley, now u have to choose 5 cheeses...and the waitress does have a clue about cheese !
