I got the 3 course 6pm meal. The started was good, the dessert was a highlight but main was so meh. I got the Hake and it was honestly 1-2/5. Dry and not very flavourful other than a very mayonnaise tasting dressing and my friend got the chicken who said he was on par with Nando’s. we both agreed the desserts (brûlée and pain perdu stood out as the best). The starters of ricotta and mackerel were really good and quite large for starters but nothing spectacular like the desserts. Giving a 3/5 because the mains were so disappointing

Sunny but covered spot for lunch on a weekday! Their weekday lunch offer of 2 courses for £33 was well worth it for a quick lunch meet up. We got the crab and seaweed tartlets to start - my favorite bite of the whole meal actually. I could have had 10 of those. Then we had the pasta and the sardines. Both delicious, but the sardine toast stood out to me as the toast was perfectly crunchy against the softer salty sardine. Sadly, the mains were just alright. I'd definitely come again for the starters and I would have a lower expectation set for the mains.

Very underwhelming experience. We have dined in several Michelin star restaurants around the world and love a good experience. This restaurant was a great disappointment. We had the evening menu, which appears to be dishes from the menu but to share and therefore double the price, other tables had ordered regular meals and they appeared to be the same size as the one we had to share. Secondly the food was just not great. Very normal, nothing extraordinary or special in any kind of way, rather boring and bland. Also the service was unable to speak proper English therefore the communication was difficult. The wine had to be self-served, the bottle was left at the table, no-one checked on us to refill our glasses. When we spoke up regarding missing fish cutlery, we got a rude answer from the waiter that he can cut it perfectly fine and would do it for us if we struggled 😳. No explanation on the dishes was given, just placed in front of us. Also the restaurants atmosphere is not great, it is very busy as the kitchen is on the upper floor and you can see and hear the waiters running up and down the hallway. The bar in the upper floor is operated in a loudly manner. When we asked to waive the service charge, our waitress was not able to understand the ask herself and called the manager who discussed the situation, so a bad meal with bad service was followed by a socially awkward conversation. We would have expected a price reduction at the very least. Would not recommend, genuinely don’t understand how they managed to get a Michelin Star.

The scallops are soft, glutinous and sweet. The beef cheek is stewed very crispy and the tendons are chewy. The shrimp dumplings are like being filled with soup, and the overall taste is very delicious. The mutton is very tender, juicy, fragrant but not sour.

Good experience overall but I expected more from the price and a Michelin star. The bread and butter was good but pretty basic. Crab and seaweed tartlets were too salty to me. The cured scallops were amazing! Probably the best dish of the set. The truffle spaghetti was delicious, I would love it to be a bit more creamy but still it was great. The Dover Sole was just okay to my taste and nothing more. Iberico Pork Pluma was great - very tender and rich in flavour although the sauce was too salty. The Pain Perdu dessert felt too simple but it was delicious to me. The wine pairing was okay and I expected more. Maybe roughly two wines were really good and interesting. The service was fine overall but they did not even take our jackets. I don’t think I would be back unfortunately

Visited here upon the recommendation of Which?, suggesting you can eat Michelin star food on a (relative) budget for £38 for 3 courses. In short, Ninth didn’t disappoint on food. We had the beef tagliatelle and ricotta salad starter, the guinea foul main and the rice pudding brûlée and Pain Perdu desserts. The starters were good but the mains and deserts were amazing - the rice pudding brûlée was one of the best desserts I’ve had ages. Utterly scrumptious. The claim of £76 total for lunch tuned out to be £100 more which comprised of water, sourdough bread, two sides and a bottle of Rose. An issue with the champagne flutes was dealt with professionally, quickly and adequately. The restaurant is quite small and intimate and we had a couple of noisy babies eating eat us and although it didn’t affect the dinner, don’t expect a quiet, romantic dinner for two here. Overall though, well worth the money.

Absolutely does what one would expect of a restaurant of this style, location and reputation. An excellent celebratory lunch. Limited but adequate menu of mixed Mediterranean meals all fresh and very tasty. Really good staff who understand the dishes and are flexible with regard to gluten free requirement. Side dishes notably pricey though - an odd aberration. Big price, small portion but only for these side dishes. Of course I shall come again

The lamb was also exceptional, tender and juicy with every bite. Every dish we tried was executed beautifully, making it a truly memorable dining experience.

I visited with a lunch reservation for one person. There were more seats than I expected, but I still think it's better to make a reservation. I took off one star for the atmosphere because there was a group of guests and it was very noisy, but the food and service were impeccable. Desserts in particular seemed to be their signature. I thought it was just because the person working at the bar was very busy, but he later apologized for not paying attention to me and said he would definitely pay attention to me the next time I came for dinner, which was quite impressive. I'll have to go back for dinner later. Ragu sauce is not the minced ragu sauce we think of. Normally, I only eat meat as a main dish, but I like the pickled shallots in this main dish, so I prefer to eat it with puree. The dessert was explained at great length, saying that they paid special attention to the bread, but for Koreans' tastes, it tastes like crispy and fluffy hotteok. It goes well with ice cream.

The Ninth offers an exceptional French-Mediterranean dining experience, perfect for those who appreciate refined yet approachable cuisine. Their Crispy Spiky Artichoke with Three-Cornered Leek Aioli is a must-try—crispy, delicate, and bursting with flavor. The Strozzapreti with Morels, Wild Garlic, and Egg Yolk is another standout, rich and beautifully balanced. For seafood lovers, the Grilled Dover Sole with Seaweed Butter and Kale is perfectly executed, showcasing the kitchen’s precision and technique. With its warm ambiance, impeccable service, and expertly crafted dishes, The Ninth is a true gem in London’s dining scene. Highly recommended for a memorable meal!

A Monday night visit for the first time. We chose the chef's menu (one meat and one pesc) which was amazing - sourdough, crab tartlets, spaghetti with truffle, sole, ibérico pork and the pain perdu were all stunning. We absolutely loved everything on the menu. Opted for a separate bottle of Californian pinot noir as opposed to the wine pairing which was also really nice. Service was excellent and a nice touch with the extra birthday treat dessert for my partner after I'd let them know in advance of that. We'll absolutely be visiting again in future!

Good experience for a birthday dinner. While the food and drinks were very good, the service is spotty, definitely surprising considering they have a Michelin star and our experience of Michelin-starred restaurant implies an exceptional service. We were at a nice table upstairs but close to the small bar area where they would loudly dump cutlery and dishes into trays and we’d hear one supervisor reprimanding a younger one…

Lunch visit arranged to The Ninth by a very good business friend to celebrate (yet again) my 80th birthday. Small but comfortably furnished restaurant on Charlotte Street with warm welcome from happy, smiling staff. Chef/proprietor Jun Tanaka has an impressive CV from 30 years in London working for some of the best chefs. Opened The Ninth in 2015 and gained a Michelin star two years later which his quality cooking still merits. My host steered me to the unbelievable value Set Menu at £35 for 2 courses or £38 for 3 courses. He quickly ordered the sourdough and butter which met all my requirements for a proper restaurant – warm fresh crusty edge bread with divine soft and salty butter. This is my first test which so many larger more pretentious establishments fail. After this treat, I opted to start with Winter tomatoes, Blood Orange, Fennel and Ajo blanco. Wonderful mix of textures and flavours but the presentation was a little chaotic and not easy to eat with my usual elegance. The main course which we both chose was sensational. Roasted guinea fowl. Cavolo nero, hazelnut pesto and glazed shallots. Breast meat tender, moist and full of slightly gamey flavour, the cabbage and shallots added textures with the pesto offering another subtle flavour. The side of crispy agria potatoes with tomato aioli was a revelation. The Maitre d’ brought Jun for the kitchen to meet us and he signed my menu. Lovely to chat to the great man as we explored his prep and cooking method for the potatoes. No room for dessert so we closed with coffee. Wonderful experience. Now on my radar and will return as soon as possible.

The food at The Ninth is good full stop. I would recommend the egg yolk ravioli and the crab and seaweed tartlets. However, the service, ambiance and attitude of the staff towards my partner and I ruined our experience. Throughout the savoury portion of our meal, we were rushed between courses, to the point we felt hurried to eat. In complete contrast, we then were made to wait 8 minutes to order our dessert - and I would understand this if more than 2 options were available on the menu. After finally ordering, the dessert took 25 minutes to come, to our complete surprise, due to such a contrast with the prior zealousness of the one waitress, who seemed to be working the entire floor. We then asked for the bill which took another 10 minutes to come. As I am sure you can understand, we rightfully asked to remove the hefty £18 service charge from our meal, as we had been made to wait too long in our opinion. Please not we were being charged by a different server who had not been our waiter this particular evening. This following interaction was very uncomfortable. Upon asking to remove said charge, he asked why, as you would expect. My partner reasoned that the service towards the end of our meal was slow, to which his reaction was aggressive, sharp and unnecessary. Quote on quote: " well the dessert takes 15 minutes to bake, that's why it's slow." "Im happy to take it [service charge], I just need to know the reason." If the dessert takes 15 minutes to make, it should be stated on the menu. Secondly, to the owners of the establishment, a server has every right to ask about their work, to better themselves and the restaurant, but they have no right to question, accuse and challenge the reasoning of the guest. It is inappropriate and leaves an ironic bitter taste in the mouth of the customer.

I dined at The Ninth on Valentine’s Day, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. First, we waited 45 minutes for our cocktails, which was completely unacceptable. When the food finally arrived, it was underwhelming. The portions were small, especially considering the high prices, and the food was served lukewarm. To make matters worse, the restaurant was clearly understaffed — the service was inattentive and slow. The food itself was very average. Honestly, the entire experience felt like it wasn’t worth the money at all. I expected much more from a place with such a reputation. I won't be returning.

We had the lunch set menu which is very good value. The starter beef ragu tagliatelle was average- good portion size but the pasta was a tad overcooked, the sage was quite nice though. The mains were good especially the duck confit. The dessert was really delicious and I highly recommend the pain perdu. However I think the restaurant might be a little short-staffed as we had 2 ladies managing all the tables on the ground floor when we dined. They definitely did their best but it'll be good if they had some extra help.

I was a bit disappointed considering this is a Michelin starred restaurant. Went for the three course dinner. Had a booking for 6, arrived ten minutes early and they wouldn’t open the doors to let any of the diners in so we had to wait in the cold and then queue to be sat down until after 6. Why not start bookings from 6.15 instead? We had winter tomato salad and ragu spaghetti for start which were both nice. Mains were guinea foul and hake - both were fine but overly salted and no better than you’d get in a gastropub. Desserts were the best part with a rice pudding crème brûlée and french toast which were both lovely. However, toward the end of our meal the restaurant got more busy and the staff were unable to keep up - we found ourselves totally ignored for over 20 minutes. I noticed other tables with dirty plates left on them too. Overall, it was a nice meal but nothing special and definitely below expectations.

No es especial Me decepciona decir... . nada terrible pero muy promedio. Así que no entiendo por qué tiene una estrella Michelin. El estándar de la comida en general era sabroso, pero la presentación estaba a la par con un muy buen pub de campo, especialmente el plato principal de carne. Si bien esto puede sonar severo esto es lo que sentimos. El asiento en el primer piso tampoco era muy cómodo. El plato de pescado de merluza en el menú de la hora del almuerzo está bien, pero la piel del pescado no estaba crujiente y luego recubierto ... . así que todo bastante suave y masticable y sin sentido. Y las verduras bastante amargas, como una versión más picante de la achicoria y un extraño acompañamiento... . esto no realzó el plato en absoluto. Los postres de arroz con pudín - el arroz estaba 'al dente'... . ok para un plato principal de pasta como espero, pero no para un postre. Hemos tenido varios almuerzos recientemente en Galvin la Chapelle y desde el punto de vista del sabor de la comida y la presentación en un nivel diferente - y el personal de servicio está mucho mejor presentado... .. no llevar pantalones vaqueros azules.

The restaurant is very nicely decorated and has two floors. The lower part is relaxed and casual, while the upper part is quieter and a little more formal. The cooking is at a very good level, but in my opinion no star. I lacked creativity and playing with materials, consistency and temperatures. That was a bit disappointing.

Standard upscale food and atmosphere, but service was lacking and didn't have a Michelin worthy experience. 3.5 stars Food: 3.5 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 4 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: yes Return worthiness: maybe Highlights: - Cabbage: charred with miso was the sleeper hit of the evening. Simple yet the miso sauce was extra delightful. 5 stars - Pain perdu: caramelized exterior with custardy exterior. Nice vanilla ice cream paired with it. Standout of the night. 5 stars - Sea bream carpaccio: fresh thin slices with a bumpy inside an orange wedge like texture to them. Enjoyed the small rounds of kumquat and green spicy pepper surrounded by a citrus flavor. 4 stars - Braised beef: tender chunk of meat that was tasty. Small amount of celeriac puree which was light and glazed carrots were crunchy with some sweetness but didn't need the mojo sauce. 3.5 stars - Lamb shoulder pasta: el dente larger pieces of pasta with the meat that was a bit salty with the chorizo added in. 3.25 stars - Early menu: 3 courses for 47-52 pounds including a glass of champagne. - Bartender: single guy hustling to take care of all drink orders--making cocktails and pouring wine. Midlights: - Cauliflower: romesco was fine but not as interesting as the other dishes. 3 stars Lowlights: - Service: hard to get the attention of the server. Time we saw her was to give us the bill. When we asked for dessert she said she needed the table back. Then it took 45 minutes for the dessert to arrive. When we asked to check up on it, she bruskly told us it takes a minute. Was good to try but with so many stellar restaurants on Charlotte street and this having a star, was expecting better.

Mi esposa pensó que el Carpaccio de Besugo era uno de los mejores entrantes que había probado. Ambos tuvimos la carne estofada para la red eléctrica que era muy tierno y sabroso. Hubo un "incidente" durante nuestra visita cuando alguien dejó un grifo corriendo en los caballeros causando inundaciones en el comedor del primer piso. A pesar de tener que evacuar, el personal se ocupó de la cuestión de manera tranquila, eficiente y eficaz. Todos los comensales regresaron pronto para terminar sus comidas más un vaso de efluvio gratis. Algunas situaciones están fuera del control de un negocio a veces, pero es la forma en que se manejan lo que hace o rompe.

Had the chef's menu, and the highlights of the meal definitely were the crab tartlets, the truffle pasta, the chargrilled turbot and the amazing pain perdu. The service was attentive and friendly, and we were recommended an amazing wine to have with the delicious food. Definitely one on the list for any special occasion!

Fantastic dining in Fitzrovia! A small restaurant with great low-lit atmosphere and exposed brick, creating a cosy, authentic and romantic vibe. The wine menu is extensive and the Stephen Vincent Chardonnay was one of my favourite wines that I’ve ever had! We had the chef’s tasting menu which was a selection of dishes, including a pasta, a fish dish and a meat dish - finished with the restaurant’s signature Pain Perdue. Every single dish was phenomenal with a great range of flavours and both French and Asian influences mixed in, which I loved. The truffle pasta was a standout for me - a dish done in many restaurants yet I feel like I’ve never had it this good before! I’d visit again immediately and would choose this place for a special occasion. I just have to deduct a star for service unfortunately - on arrival, despite having a booking, we were told that there was only bar seating available. No problem, we said - but could we please be moved when a table became available (we asked this twice). The hostess promised us we would be, but 3 dishes in we had still not been moved despite there being visibly empty tables. We then chased this and asked to be moved to one of the empty tables, and we were then moved. Ultimately this is a small detail, but I feel the hostess should have been more attentive to moving us - when enjoying a £100pp tasting menu at a Michelin starred restaurant, it is understandable that the guests ideally don’t want to have this at the bar and attention should be paid to facilitate this as soon as possible!

Var här och åt lunch tillsammans med min partner. Vi båda var extremt nöjda med både mat och vin. Servicen var personlig och avslappnad. Alla rätter var goda och väl avvägda.

We went for the three-course lunch menu on a busy Saturday. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Our dishes were beautifully presented and very well cooked. They catered to our needs as I am pregnant. Overall pleased with the experience and would recommend to visit. Favourite dish were for the both of us the Beef with honey carrots.

Overall disappointing especially due to service not up to Michelin star restaurant standards. We got a tasting menu. The dishes were good but nothing out of the ordinary like you would expect for the tasting menu. For one of the dishes the side came only when we finished the main. We came to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and the birthday cake came to the table next to us not us. The lady that received it was clearly surprised and said that her birthday was a while ago but the staff still did not realize they brought it to the wrong table so we never got it.

The whole experience was in general super super good. I really enjoyed the starter and main dishes, but I must admit the dessert was not really up to scratch. Perhaps the dessert snob that I am has the bar too high, but I simply did not think it was as good as the rest. Nonetheless, I highly recommend going as my friends dessert was quite good and all our dishes and staff were great!

Another outstanding dinner at the ninth. The lunch menu is phenomenal and fantastic value. I highly recommend this restaurant for a meet up or business lunch. My salad starter was amazing and my seafood risotto was so tasty. Can't wait to go back again. Thank you to the whole team

I didn't have a very good evening at ninth. The dish (rissotto) was good, even if it was only a small quantity, but the service was not up to scratch at all! The table was not ready when we arrived despite having made a reservation. The drinks took an eternity to appear (one of the sides never even turned up lol). Not to mention the gluten-free bread, which was bland and slightly burnt. I can't get my head around their 1* michelin lol

Primera vez en junio Tanaka's restaurante con estrella Michelin en Fitzrovia con un colega para la cena y qué delicia que fue. El restaurante es bastante acogedor y tiene dos plantas, aunque estábamos sentados abajo entre una masa parlanchina de comensales. La bienvenida fue buena y empezamos con copas de champán. Elegimos el menú Chef's Choice por un precio extremadamente respetable de 93 £ por persona y que consta de cinco platos con curso opcional de queso. Empezó con pan junto a tartas de cangrejo y algas (que estaban deliciosas) y el atún rojo servía ceviche; también era un plato adecuado en lugar de pequeños bocados. Esto fue seguido por Cep risotto y alcachofas de Jerusalén, pez monje a la parrilla y estofado de pulpo, pluma de cerdo ibérico y judías verdes con hermosas patatas Agria cuadradas crujientes. El postre fue Pain Perdu y helado de frijoles tonka. Todo era sorprendentemente sabroso y extremadamente morado. Particularmente me encantó el cerdo ibérico, servido rosa y exquisito. Yo diría que no es tu presentación promedio con estrellas Michelin pero ciertamente fue elegante, si no un espectáculo en el plato. Sin embargo, los sabores compensan con creces eso. Junto con copas de champán, vino, agua y té, la factura total fue de £ 277 con propina. No está nada mal y sin duda un buen lugar para pasar unas horas fuera comiendo buena comida.

I unfortunately can’t recommend this restaurant. We went for the midday 3-course menu. There was nothing special about it. For starters we had the fish carpaccio and spaghetti, fish was nice, spaghetti had nothing special that you could not get anywhere else. For mains we had the gnocchi and pork shoulder. Half the pork serving was fat, and the meat was tough, had a nice flavour, but nothing making it special. Gnocchi was the best meal, they were toasted o. The outside and soft on the inside, very nice sauce. Dessert we had the French toast, very nice caramelisation and soft core. The disappointment comes from being a Michelin restaurant, the dishes did not seem elevated or innovative. Service was very kind and attentive.

The dishes we had were delicious. Up there with Michelin grade food. The pork dish in particular was as good as I’ve tasted that meat cooked. The problem here was the service. It was disinterested and unprofessional in so many small ways. The one big way was that we sat for twenty minutes before having our order taken. That should never happen. None of the staff are rude but everything they do falls short of top standard and often falls short of basic service levels. Their dress code of jeans and trainers is absolutely fine if you deliver elite service levels. If you provide poor service the dress code grates as it appears a reflection of shoddy, disinterested, unprofessional attitudes. A few small examples that all add up over the course of a meal: - waitress takes order but is looking away into the distance at other tables. Clearly paying no real attention. - waiter picks up dirty and discarded serviette and folds it up, then replaces it on the table in front of me with dirty stains showing. Is it that wild an idea to replace it with a fresh serviette? - waitress picking up my empty plates from the table whilst my partner is still eating her main course. - When bill is delivered and card placed down, the waitress looked at the table twice and then proceeded to pick up plates and cutlery to lay some other tables. This is at the end of the night so there were no customers expected. It was just to prepare the tables for the following day. She even came back, glanced at the bill again and then picked up glasses to finish preparing the other tables. These might seem small things but seriously this is Michelin starred food at a top price whilst the service is half arsed and they appear untrained. It really ruins the experience and does a disservice to the chefs.

The welcome was lukewarm, with no real interest in how I was doing. I wasn’t offered a drink before being asked about food, and there were no recommendations offered. This was a shame as a side with the main was really needed, and I would have ordered, had it been suggested. The crab tartlets were tasty, though I was surprised they were served hot, which made the tartlet case a bit soggy. The seabream carpaccio, however, was simply delicious. Used cutlery left on the table until the main came - not ideal, and had to ask for replacement. The pork shoulder was flavorful but tough to cut in places - a steak knife would have been useful. Some gristly bits were too much and had to be left. The grilled chanterelle mushrooms and pickled cobnuts were well-balanced, but there was no follow-up to check how the food was. I might have asked for a side if they had. The portion of meat was a bit too large. Less meat and another vegetable on the plate would have made it feel like a more well rounded dish. I was given a recommendation for dessert (after asking). This pud was pleasant and I enjoyed it. Offered coffee, however no alternative milks are available (I drink oat), so no thanks. While paying, no ask on how my meal was. I agree with other reviews to some extent, that while I’m not bothered so much about the dress code, the overall service here does seem to fall below par for a one star. Regardless if you’re here for the set lunch menu (which I was) or à la carte in the evening. Would I be back, highly doubtful. Would I recommend, not particularly.

Weekday evening meal on 16th October 2024. Fair food, ambience, and service, but lighting too dim to read the menu. Resorted to using the torch on my mobile phone. Nothing deserving of a Michelin star - surprised they have one! No wow factor at all for any aspect. Presentation of food was mediocre. Food prices are inflated, I suppose because of the one Michelin star rating. Waiters wear jeans, and two were wearing trainers. Not even smart casual. Customers were all more smartly dressed than waiters. Well below expectations overall, and wouldn't want to go back. Many no star restaurants perform better than this one. My rating is based on expectations for a star rated restaurant, hence the disappointingly low grade. Oh dear!

What a truly remarkable experience. We are both vegan and had the plant based tasting menu and I included the wine pairing. Every dish reached unimaginable levels of taste flavor and texture while being visually stunning. The wine pairings accentuated the most significant notes of the dish and of the wine. The menu changes seasonally and I can’t wait for the next menu to see what incredible greatness and remarkable tastes they can bring forth. The vanilla bean dessert stole the show but the plant based tortellini with kale and pesto blew our minds.

Loved it , been on my list for ages and didn’t disappoint . The services was attentive without being intrusive. The food was beautifully cooked and the attention to quality goes down to the butter . Portions are generous too. Will be back
