The Ninth London - Buy Reservations

French cuisine with a Mediterranean twist that earned a Michelin star. They were closed for almost a year due to a fire but reopened earlier this month. Everything was incredible. The salted beef cheek & tongue and pain perdu (dessert) were the highlight. The spaghetti was also amazing as well. Also don't sleep on the cocktails.

It’s been about a year since our last visit here, as it’s been closed for a refurb. The good news is that they’ve kept all the best bits - the wonderful staff including the main man Jun Tanaka and some of the highlights of the menu such as the Pain Perdu. Then they have made some slight changes to the decor and improved the bathrooms which all go to make it even more special. The crispy artichoke to have as a little light starter was devine. The Gnudi were immense, like Gnocchi on steroids and the Tuna belly and Beetroot tart tatin also excellent and I think new additions to the menu. I have had the roast Turbot and langoustine ravioli previously and they have stuck with them for good reason! Excellent cocktails including one with their own gin + helpful advice on wine, combined with impeccable service all meant for a special night. Bill was far from scary by London standards - we will be back!

To keep this short: The Ninth was the first Michelin-starred restaurant I had the privilege to visit. From start to finish it was probably the nicest dinner experience I’ve had. My favorite dish was the orecchiette, followed by the pain perdu.

Visited on a busy Saturday evening. Lovely cosy atmosphere in the restaurant with welcoming staff and great tasting food.

Early supper with friends and family meant a few quiet minutes before the restaurant came to life. Encouraged to share dishes which is a good thing although I would have eaten the ravioli myself rather than share it with 5 others. I think my wife felt the same about the pain perdu. Great food but do have a few dishes to share and try. Delightful waiting team and a good buzz. No music just people enjoying themselves.

This was fabulous! I’ve read the previous reviews and can’t believe they are talking about the same restaurant. Everything from the food and service to the really lovely buzzy atmosphere was just perfect. Tasty beautifully presented food served by attentive friendly and knowledgeable staff. What more do you want? Bearing in mind it’s in London I felt the prices were cheap, for the quality and skill from the kitchen. Our bill for this meal was the cheapest by far but second favourite during our trip. It was great to see it was so busy and it really added to the atmosphere. Loved the decor and the service style of relaxed and friendly. Thankyou for a wonderful meal

We went here for my father in law’s 70th birthday. We don’t frequent Michelin star restaurants often, although we have been fortunate enough to go to some amazing ones. We save these kind of places for special occasions, we anticipate the bill will be high and we therefore expect an exceptional eating experience and value for money. Firstly, I never review restaurants, but I feel so strongly about our experience that I can’t not share with others! We didn’t have terrible food, in fact it was fine, but we were left so totally underwhelmed - a bill of over £400 was completely unjustified. The service was fine, the ambience was fine, the food was fine. But that was all it was. Nothing blew us away (and we had a decent selection between the 5 of us). The wine is so grossly overpriced it further takes away from the enjoyment of it. The table was too small for all the food - the waitress wanted to stagger our food (probably for that reason) but we wanted starters and mains - not unreasonable I don’t think! We sent back a pasta dish - my brother in law actually thought it might be out of a Heinz can! He had a risotto instead (the best thing we ordered). When the bill came, they had charged us for the risotto despite this being a replacement meal. No apologies from the kitchen. No complimentary drink for my brother in law. Whenever I have been to a high end restaurant to celebrate an occasion and let them know, there has always been a token desert/ cake or something from the establishment. At The Ninth? - a card, signed from the staff…! Needless to say that did not go on the mantelpiece next to the other cards! (If anyone finds it on the Jubilee line then happy belated birthday from Jun!) Not very generous. So all in all we are left wondering how on earth this got its star and would encourage anyone looking for a special meal to look at the hundreds of other restaurants that will blow you away for that money.

The ambience was enjoyable. The service was as expected. I didn’t enjoy my meal. I’ve prepared more tasty salad, fish and pasta dishes at home. I sent back my main pasta dish, it was bland and tasted like it was prepared by an amateur chef. To be honest, nothing I tasted made an impression. Would not recommend The Ninth to anyone, especially at the prices charged. This was my first experience of a Michelin star restaurant and, if that's what Michelin star is, I'll stick to my locals where I eat scrumptious well presented food for a quarter of the price. I am devastated to write this review as the occasion was to celebrate my father’s 70th birthday. He loves food, but he didn't love his meal at The Ninth. None of us did. We picked a special restaurant for the occasion and it was far from special. As it was a special occasion, we did not want to ruin the evening voicing our discontent, hence my review.

You cannot criticise the food, whilst the portions look small, each and every one is composed and a symphony on your palate, the quality of the ingredients shines through BUT the wines are seriously overpriced. Whilst good, a quick google on some of the wines we drank at £40+ a bottle were readily available to buy at £7 average at many places. I appreciate that restaurants have has a hard time but I won’t go back

This is really worth a detour for anyone seeking something out of the ordinary. Some brilliant treatments including amazing tempura and really a wide variety of plates which are intended to be shared made this a great experience.

Crammed interior with no wow factor! Had to move once as table of two was set out for three. My issues with the food was the value- told that it was sharing dishes but tiny portions including mains made it poor value for money. Beetroot dish good. Artichoke - two sliced piece of artichoke- inadequate for the dish and too salty. Pasta- the black pasta- malloreddus cuttlefish was good- reasonable size. The langoustine ravioli for £23 was 4 piece! If sharing with 4 you get one pieces which poor value for money for a sharing plate. Mains of turbot which was £38- small dish and tasted muddy- it would be poor quality fish for turbot to taste muddy! Accompaniment of roast cauliflower was £10- too much was the portion and what it was. Best dish was the pain perdu-£12 but was very good- still overpriced for desert- French toast soaked in custard- absolutely delicious Service was average. Wines- Over pieces. Bottles for less than £10 being sold with 4X mark up !

This was a great restaurant to enjoy a family style dinner with shared dishes. It is like an elevated izakaya/tapas style restaurant. The appetizers, main courses and dessert were all very good. Cool and lively atmosphere and reservations definitely recommended as it was very crowded when we were there. Cocktail, beer and wine list were all very decent. Attentive servers.

A relatively new (5 years) restaurant in Fitzrovia that seems to be doing very well, post-Covid. A bit small, with only two dozen seats and maybe another half-dozen at the tiny bar, but this allows the competent staff easy control of the simply decorated room.I decided on a seafood meal, selecting smoked eel and panisse (chickpea cake), flamed mackerel with kohlrabi and lemon, roast cod with artichoke and more parnisse in a "fish-and-chips" display, and finishing with cheesecake with poached rhubarb. I only think that the sommelier could had been a bit more helpful with my wine selection, instead of allowing me to select just a single bottle. I really enjoy the open kitchen concept, but the building's footprint here is far too small, all the food appears via dumbwaiter behind the bar.The enthusiastic servers, the flavors of each dish, the simple, effective plating means I'll have to return. And soon.2022 04 01. M1.

Dinner at The Ninth capped off my week-long culinary escapade through Europe. With 6 Michelin stars under my belt already, The Ninth was up against some heady competition. It more than held its own!

My turbot main course was out of this world. Moist, flavorful, perfectly cooked - I don't think I've had such a good piece of seafood in a while (note that it comes bone-in, but don't be deterred as the bone is quite large and sturdy, so the fish can be peeled off it easily w/o one getting small bone bits in every mouthful).

My beef cheek starter with horseradish sauce was equally flavorful, but arrived a bit on the cool side, unfortunately.

Service was very attentive and welcoming by all, including the floor manager and my charming Milanese bartender/waitress.

Solid selection of wines, including by the glass.

Homey, comfortable space with a good vibe and ambiance.

Highly recommended!
