Michelin-starred restaurants in London - Restaurants

See how many stars Time Out gave the 2012 additions to the Michelin guide

Find out more about the 2012 additions to the list of 55 Michelin-starred London restaurants and the 45 restaurants boasting a Bib Gourmand. This year saw only four new one-star additions to the guide, including winner of the Time Out Eating & Drinking Award for the Best New Fine Dining restaurant, Pollen Street Social, and runner-up Dinner by Heston Blumenthal. Pied à Terre was demoted from two stars to one star following the departure of chef Shane Osborn. A Bib Gourmand, recognising good food at moderate prices, was newly awarded to London restaurants such as noodle specialist Koya, Iranian restaurant Kateh and José Pizarro's tapas bar, José.
