Restaurant 1890 by Gordon Ramsay in City of London, Westminster

My third time time doing the tour and I would recommend to anyone. It’s a fab atmosphere with amazing food and drinks. Staff are very friendly, JR and Keri made us feel very welcome and looked after us well

Elegimos este restaurante porque era inferior a 1/2 cuadra de nuestro hotel y críticas decentes de diversas fuentes. Éramos los únicos clientes cuando llegamos, lo que fue perfecto, ya que teníamos un impredecible 2 años con nosotros. todos nos pedimos desayuno y dos zumos añadidos. La resaca tortilla era delicioso y mi marido disfrutó mucho sus huevos benedictinos. También disfrutamos tanto los zumos. Es un lugar muy pequeño con solo una persona corriendo, así que el servicio era un poco lento, pero sin duda volveremos. hubiéramos deseado desayunamos allí en las mañanas de nuestra estancia en vez de ir a Lantanas la primera mañana

Nothing to write home about. The restaurant is very small and verging om dingy/ dark. Most of the lights were flickering constantly. That's fine if you're going for a 'hole in the wall, off beaten track' vibe, but if you're markering for fine french dining in EC, maybe change a light bulb occasionally. The restrooms were pretty dirty and their decor unloved for that level of restaurant. Food wise, the bread served with the meal was wholesale cheap stuff that you would expect to see at a Premier Inn, and the butter tasted weirdly off- ie like it had begun to ferment from being left unrefrigerated for too long. Serving salted butter might be a better choice for such instance. But again, for high- level French dining, fresh whipped butter and warm fresh bread is usually a nice addition to the meal. The main meal was certainly pleasant, fresh and well balanced. Starter was trout ceviche followed by cod. It lacked any real depth of flavour and seasoning. I would expect to have just as pleasant a fish meal in any upscale seaside pub- ie tasty and fresh but not sophisticated (but probably at half the price paid here). There was no wine pairing or recommendations by the waiters. The wine was again fairly underwhelming and the selection was rather limited (which is fine if curated well, but this wasn't the case). Waiting staff were prompt, professional and friendly. The restaurant is so tiny that you find yourself bumping into them on entry and exit, however. In summation, if you have plenty of disposable income and not much time to book a reservation in advance, then this will probably just about fit the bill, but it would be better value for money to get on the Eurostar and hit the nearest bistro when you get to the other side!

Tiny and extremely charming. The oysters and ceviche were first rate!

Great service. The food was outstanding. Olya and Barbara were very friendly and made the whole experience memorable.
