Winning a World Luxury Restaurant Award will not only inspire the confidence of guests and retain a loyal clientele in this highly competitive market, but it will also stimulate continuous growth and development of your restaurant.

How was my restaurant nominated?

Luxury restaurants can nominate themselves, be nominated by guests, travel agents or tour operators for consideration in the World Luxury Restaurant Awards, which is made possible by the nomination facility on our website. Once a restaurant has been nominated, it is evaluated by our team to ensure that the venue adheres to luxury standards in terms of food quality, style of service and standards, décor/interior, public image and guest reviews. If successfully evaluated the restaurant management team is contacted, informed of the nomination and extended the opportunity to participate.
