The shortlists for each region are now open for public vote before finalists are decided.
They are then invited to create their hero dish for the panel of expert judges who will decide who walks away with the £100,000 for Restaurant of the Year.
Uber Eats said there are 40 different cuisines in the shortlist of 130 restaurants in UK and Ireland.
As well as the grand prize, Uber Eats is offering all regional winners a £5,000 prize.
