London's Michelin-starred restaurants

Prices are as mouth-watering as the menu at Gordon Ramsay's flagship establishment, but it remains one of only two London restaurants to hold three Michelin stars, an endorsement it has maintained since 2001.

The Araki

Japanese chef Mitsuhiro Araki had already achieved three Michelin stars for his Tokyo sushi bar before he closed it down and moved to London. The wine list here is small, the seating is limited, and the prices are among the highest - but so are the plaudits for this world-leading Mayfair restaurant.

The Glasshouse

This stablemate of Wandsworth's long-established Chez Bruce offers French and modern European cuisine. Located not far from Kew's botanical gardens, The Glasshouse is unassuming in appearance, but the food has continued to garner praise since its opening nearly two decades ago.

Pidgin

Murano

Gordon Ramsay protegee Angela Hartnett is now a culinary star in her own right, and Murano reflects the fact that she grew up alongside an Italian grandmother and aunts. The surroundings are elegant, the cooking is quality - and the set lunch is a bargain.
