Summary
“It’s a surprise to find such an outstanding restaurant in such an unlikely place”, say fans of Michael Lim’s resurrected pan-Asian, nowadays on the more obscure fringes of Notting Hill (previously near the Portobello Road). With its “wonderful” Asian cuisine, fans feel “it’s just as good as it was in All Saints Road”, and even if ratings are still a tad off their historic highs, it’s widely seen as “a fab addition to W11’s culinary choices”.
For 31 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Owner's description
Located at Notting Hill Gate, ULI offers a fresh, honest approach to Asian cuisine. Natural limed oak, soft tones of blue and contemporary art give the restaurant a clean and informal look, highlighted by a hanging garden of pendant lights. Our menu encompasses carefully selected dishes from Asia, all prepared using traditional Chinese, Thai, Malay and Singaporean disciplines. We believe that Asian food should be clean, fresh and healthy, and that each dish should always be made from scratch.
Originally established on the All Saints Road in 1997, ULI became a firm favourite among locals and critics alike. At its new home on Ladbroke Road where our terrace forms part of the vibrant local scene, ULI serves lunch and dinner all week as well as an extensive range of snacks, cocktails and beverages.

Uli Restaurant Diner Reviews
"This is a great friendly neighbourhood restaurant with tasty food and a relaxed but lively atmosphere. The team works hard and service is attentive - mostly! There is a large outdoor covered terrace at the front, warm in winter and cool in summer. The prices are on the high side but the main course portions are large - enough for one between two if you have had starters. The constant flow through the restaurant of carrier bags for Deliveroo pick up at the entrance can be a bit distracting - for customers and staff alike. Service is always better when the owner is around. "
