The Ledbury has scored a hat-trick of wins in the Ultimate Restaurant List 2014 which picks its winners based on an aggregate of all other dining awards and ratings.
Organised by the website, AllinLondon.co.uk, it claims to bring together the "myriad of dining awards and ratings into one easy to digest, definitive index".
By using a mathematical algorithm it "weights and assesses the various local, national and global awards, accolades and industry momentum" to come up with its list.
The Ledbury is clearly doing well in all those categories as this is the third year that the two Michelin star Notting Hill restaurant in west London has come out on top.
The Ledbury's head chef, Brett Graham, said of the award: "Consistency is important to us and this award shows what a great job our team is doing here seven days a week."
What's more its sister restaurant, The Square, was runners-up with Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley, now re-named as Marcus, coming third.
The biggest mover in the Ultimate list was a little further down with Launceston Place jumping 30 places to 37, which is a great accolade to chef Tim Allen who took over in 2012.
Restaurant Story, which was a finalist in the Harpers Awards this year was a new entry at 23. Angela Hartnett's Murano climbed 21 places to 12.
